Why was the term personal computer created?

Computers and Technology
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
3 0
It was created to show the difference between computers that were owned by companies (at one point they were so large and so expensive that only big groups could afford and store them), and the era when computers became small enough for individuals to be able to fit them in their own homes, and also afford them. The era of the Personal Computer (PC) was a huge changing point in history because it brought a lot of power and connectivity into people's homes that hadn't been available before.

Ainat [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

//import the Scanner class to allow for user input

import java.util.Scanner;

//Begin class definition

public class FirstAndLast{

   //Begin the main method

    public static void main(String []args){

       

       

       //****create an object of the Scanner class.

       //Call the object 'input' to receive user's input

       //from the console.

       Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

       

       //****create a prompt to tell the user what to do.

       System.out.println("Enter the string");

       

       //****receive the user's input

       //And store it in a String variable called 'str'

       String str =  input.next();

       

       //****get and print the first character.

       //substring(0, 1) - means get all the characters starting

       //from the lower bound (index 0) up to, but not including the upper

       //bound(index 1).

       //That technically means the first character.

       System.out.print(str.substring(0,1));

       

       //****get and print the last character

       //1. str.length() will return the number of character in the string 'str'.

       //This is also the length of the string

       //2. substring(str.length() - 1) - means get all the characters starting

       // from index that is one less than the length of the string to the last

       // index (since an upper bound is not specified).

       // This technically means the last character.

       System.out.print(str.substring(str.length()-1));

       

       

       

    }  // end of main method

   

} //end of class definition
