a) What is the difference between hardware and software? Hardware refers to the physical components of a computer, while software refers to the programs and data that run on and are processed by the hardware. b) Where are hybrid computers used? Hybrid computers are used in applications that require both analog and digital data processing, such as in medical diagnostics (e.g., ECG machines) and scientific computations. c) What is cloud computing? Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services such as storage, processing, and software over the internet ("the cloud") rather than using local servers or personal devices. d) What is machine learning? Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that involves the development of algorithms that allow computers to learn from and make predictions or decisions based on data. e) What do you mean by the generation of computer? The generation of a com
