Question

What is an input interface how it different from an output interface?

Answer 1

An input device sends information to a computer system for processing, and an output device reproduces or displays the results of that processing. Depending on the interaction, a device can be both, referred to as an input/output or I/O device.

For example, as you can see in the top half of the image, a keyboard sends electrical signals, which are received by the computer (input). Those signals are then interpreted by the computer and displayed on the monitor as text (output). In the lower half of the image, the computer sends data to a printer, which will print the data onto a piece of paper (output).
