Introduction to Computer Applications

A computer is a programmable electronic device that can store, retrieve, and process data. The term "computer" emerged during World War II to refer to people who operated desk calculators. Early computers like the Mark 1 and ENIAC were developed to perform calculations faster than humans - the Mark 1 could add numbers 30 times faster than with pencil and paper, while ENIAC was 50,000 times faster than a human. Basic components of all computer systems include input, processing, output, storage, and software. Different types of computers include mainframes, used in large organizations for data processing; supercomputers, at the forefront of processing capacity; and microcomputers, now commonly known as personal computers.

Word Processor
• The tool used to perform word processing
• Long time ago, a word processor was a
HW/SW combination used solely for performing
the word processing task. It looked like a
computer terminal or a PC, but could do only
one task – word processing
• Today, the term “word processor” generally
means the SW used on a computer to perform
the task of word processing
6
Uses of Word Processors
• Write a letter
• Address labels
• Research paper or report
• Advertisement
• Newsletter
• Magazines
• Book
• And thousands of other tasks

Excel is the most widely used spreadsheet program. It was originally developed by Microsoft in 1985 to compete with Lotus 1-2-3. Excel has become more powerful and user-friendly over time with new features and capabilities added in each version. It is now on version 15 and is part of the Microsoft Office suite of products. Excel allows users to store, organize, and manipulate various types of data, perform calculations, and create charts and graphs.

Word processing

Word processing refers to creating and editing documents using a word processor program. A word processor allows users to write, edit, format, and print text-based documents. Some key features of word processors include editing text, formatting fonts and styles, checking spelling and grammar, creating templates, and performing mail merges to insert database fields into standard letters. Word processing is commonly used in business, education, and home settings for tasks like creating legal documents, letters, assignments, and maintaining diaries.

Evolution of WP’s
1. Manual & electric typewriters (1930-1960)
– Were page oriented
– Type face/size was changed by replacing the typing ball
2. Typewriters with magnetic storage (1960’s)
– IBM added storage capability using magnetic tape
3. Line editors on computers(1960's)
4. Stand alone word processors (1960's-1970's)
– cost: $15,000 to 20,000
5. Current WP programs on uCs (1980's onwards)
10
Types: WYSIWYG-based & Markup-based
• All early WP’s and some of the modern ones as
well are markup-based: similar to HTML
– Generally are harder to learn, but may provide
better control and smaller file size
– Example: LaTeX
• Most current PC-based WP’s belong to the
WYSIWYG category
– Easy to get started due to the WIMP interface
– Example: MS Word, Corel WordPerfect, Sun Star
11
Desktop Publishing (DTP)
• A combination of word processing and graphic
design. Used to develop elegant documents
• In the olden times, DTP was used for designing
magazines, newspapers & other professional-
looking items
• These days, because of the low cost of DTP
SW, it is being used for less-demanding and
ordinary tasks as well
• The original Macintosh PC started the era of
DTP or “Personal Publishing” in 1984
12
DTP –vs– WP
• The difference between the two is diminishing
with time
• Most WP’s now include many tools that, not
long ago, were found only in DTP SW
• Generally, DTP SW is a bit more difficult to use
for us common computer users, whereas WP
SW is quite user-friendly
• DTP SW generally provides finer control over
the design/layout of a document

Spreadsheet basics ppt

A spreadsheet is a grid of rows and columns used to organize and analyze numerical data in cells. A workbook contains one or more spreadsheets and allows users to perform calculations on the data. Spreadsheets are commonly used for household budgets, grades, finances, and payroll in businesses. A spreadsheet displays data in cells that are identified by their column letter and row number. A range refers to a group of adjacent cells, while the cell address specifies a single cell's location using its column and row.

13
DTP: Requirements
• High-end PC with a large-screen monitor
• Laser printer
• Scanner
• DTP SW
– Examples:
• Adobe PageMaker
• QuarkXPress
• Corel Ventura
• MS Publisher
14
Word Processors for the Web
• Most common WP’s and DTP packages now
have the Web development ability
– They also include features like auto-recognition of
eMail addresses and URL’s
• However, specialized SW just for developing
Web pages and sites is also available
– Examples: DreamWeaver, FrontPage
15
The right font face & size for normal text
• If text is too small, it becomes hard to read
• Too large, wastage of space is the result.
Plus the reader has to turn more pages than
necessary
• Either way, the reader gets annoyed
• For general WP, 10-12 point size works well
• Most users, either use the Times New Roman
or Arial/Helvetica type face
16
Bold, Italic, Underlined Text
• Bold – fat
• Italic – slanted (Why the name italic?)
• Underlined
• All used to emphasize a certain segment of text
• Plea:
– Please do not over-do them
– Their over-use makes it very difficult for the reader
– And please, use one at a time: Text that is no only
bold but also italic & underlined looks +ively awful

MS-WORD is a part of the bigger package called MS OFFICE, which can do much more than word processing. fact when you open up MS OFFICE you will find four main components in it. They are MS-WORD (for word processing), MS EXCEL (for spreadsheet), MS ACCESS (for database management), and MS POWERPOINT (for presentation purposes). However, we will limit ourselves to MS-WORD only in this presentation.

Select, Cut, Copy, Drag, Paste
• Just select and cut or copy or drag
• Can also paste after a cut or a copy
• Just think about the pain that people suffered
before the advent of the modern WP’s
– Movement of a single sentence from one page to
another would have required re-doing all the
pages in between
18
Spelling & Grammar
• Grammar checkers are not very helpful yet,
but still useful and are improving with time
• Warning: Spell checkers are not all that
smart! Use them with care.
• Disadvantage: My spelling ability is
deteriorating day-by-day because of over-
reliance on WP spell-checkers. I am having
great difficulty in writing even short-ish
hand-written notes without spelling errors
19
Thesaurus
• My favorite tool
• Helps you find synonyms and,
sometimes, antonyms as well
20
Tables
• Tables are sometimes useful for
presenting info in an ordered fashion
• Most WP’s provide extensive table
construction & manipulation features

Microsoft Excel 2007 is a widely used spreadsheet program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite, with capabilities for performing calculations, organizing data, creating charts and graphics, and automating tasks through macros. Excel allows users to enter and manipulate data in worksheets and perform calculations with formulas, analyze information with built-in functions and tools, and visualize data through a variety of chart types. Key features and functions of Excel 2007 include entering and editing data, working with formulas and functions, formatting worksheets, inserting objects and illustrations, printing and preparing files, reviewing and sharing workbooks, and customizing the Excel environment.

21
Graphics & Drawings
• You can insert graphics that are made
using other apps into a WP document
• Several WP’s have a built-in drawing tool,
which can be used for adding simple
diagrams (e.g. a flow chart, a simple
street map) into a WP document
22
The Best Feature: Undo
• Allows you to recover from your mistakes
• Allows you to experiment without risk
23
Document View Mode
• Most WP’s provide several ways of
viewing a document
• I normally work in and recommend what is
known as the “Print Layout” view mode
• In this view, the WP works in a true
WYSIWYG mode
24
Print-Preview & Printing
• Make sure to preview your document before
printing it
• Do this to make sure about the”look” of the
document before it is printed
• Most people these days either use inkjet
printers or laser printers
– Color inkjet printers cost less but are slower
– B&W laser printers cost around twice as much, but
are faster and generally have finer resolution
– Color laser printers are expensive

– Can be automatically generated
– Page nos. in the index get readjusted automatically
• Application of predefined styles
– Change style; text changes automatically throughout the doc

Document-Centered Computing
27
Getting On-Screen Help
• All WP’s generally have some form of built-in
help mechanism
• To me, it seems like that many of those help-
systems are designed to be “not-very-helpful”:
they make finding answers to simple questions
quite difficult
• Nevertheless, do try them when you are
searching for answers

Desktop publishing allows users to produce high-quality printed documents using a personal computer. It allows for the use of different fonts, margins, and the embedding of images and graphs directly into text. Consistency in layout is important, such as using a limited set of typefaces, consistent spacing and alignment of elements, and full justification of text. Images should be relevant to the accompanying text and help break up long passages.

Word processing-dtp

  • 1. 1 CS101 Introduction to Computing Lecture 14 Word Processing
  • 2. 2 Focus of the last lecture was on Application SW Application SW are programs that interact directly with the user for the performance of a certain type of work That work generally falls into one of the following usage areas – Scientific/engineering/graphics – Business – Productivity – Entertainment – Educational
  • 3. 3 Today’s Lecture • First among the four lectures that we plan to have on productivity software, a sub- category of application software • This first lecture will be on word processing • We’ll learn about what we mean by word processing and also desktop publishing • We’ll discuss the usage of various functions provided by common word processors
  • 4. 4 Word Processing • The art and science of converting written information into a form that looks pleasing when printed • One of the most popular activities on the PC
  • 5. 5 Word Processor • The tool used to perform word processing • Long time ago, a word processor was a HW/SW combination used solely for performing the word processing task. It looked like a computer terminal or a PC, but could do only one task – word processing • Today, the term “word processor” generally means the SW used on a computer to perform the task of word processing
  • 6. 6 Uses of Word Processors • Write a letter • Address labels • Research paper or report • Advertisement • Newsletter • Magazines • Book • And thousands of other tasks
  • 8. 8 Common Features 1. Type, cut, copy, paste, move text 2. Automatic line-breaks 3. Change font type, face, size, color 4. Change number of columns 5. Adjust margins and line, word, letter spacing 6. Have running headers, footers, page nos. 7. Insert tables, charts, graphics, drawings
  • 9. 9 Evolution of WP’s 1. Manual & electric typewriters (1930-1960) – Were page oriented – Type face/size was changed by replacing the typing ball 2. Typewriters with magnetic storage (1960’s) – IBM added storage capability using magnetic tape 3. Line editors on computers(1960's) 4. Stand alone word processors (1960's-1970's) – cost: $15,000 to 20,000 5. Current WP programs on uCs (1980's onwards)
  • 10. 10 Types: WYSIWYG-based & Markup-based • All early WP’s and some of the modern ones as well are markup-based: similar to HTML – Generally are harder to learn, but may provide better control and smaller file size – Example: LaTeX • Most current PC-based WP’s belong to the WYSIWYG category – Easy to get started due to the WIMP interface – Example: MS Word, Corel WordPerfect, Sun Star
  • 11. 11 Desktop Publishing (DTP) • A combination of word processing and graphic design. Used to develop elegant documents • In the olden times, DTP was used for designing magazines, newspapers & other professional- looking items • These days, because of the low cost of DTP SW, it is being used for less-demanding and ordinary tasks as well • The original Macintosh PC started the era of DTP or “Personal Publishing” in 1984
  • 12. 12 DTP –vs– WP • The difference between the two is diminishing with time • Most WP’s now include many tools that, not long ago, were found only in DTP SW • Generally, DTP SW is a bit more difficult to use for us common computer users, whereas WP SW is quite user-friendly • DTP SW generally provides finer control over the design/layout of a document
  • 13. 13 DTP: Requirements • High-end PC with a large-screen monitor • Laser printer • Scanner • DTP SW – Examples: • Adobe PageMaker • QuarkXPress • Corel Ventura • MS Publisher
  • 14. 14 Word Processors for the Web • Most common WP’s and DTP packages now have the Web development ability – They also include features like auto-recognition of eMail addresses and URL’s • However, specialized SW just for developing Web pages and sites is also available – Examples: DreamWeaver, FrontPage
  • 15. 15 The right font face & size for normal text • If text is too small, it becomes hard to read • Too large, wastage of space is the result. Plus the reader has to turn more pages than necessary • Either way, the reader gets annoyed • For general WP, 10-12 point size works well • Most users, either use the Times New Roman or Arial/Helvetica type face
  • 16. 16 Bold, Italic, Underlined Text • Bold – fat • Italic – slanted (Why the name italic?) • Underlined • All used to emphasize a certain segment of text • Plea: – Please do not over-do them – Their over-use makes it very difficult for the reader – And please, use one at a time: Text that is no only bold but also italic & underlined looks +ively awful
  • 17. 17 Select, Cut, Copy, Drag, Paste • Just select and cut or copy or drag • Can also paste after a cut or a copy • Just think about the pain that people suffered before the advent of the modern WP’s – Movement of a single sentence from one page to another would have required re-doing all the pages in between
  • 18. 18 Spelling & Grammar • Grammar checkers are not very helpful yet, but still useful and are improving with time • Warning: Spell checkers are not all that smart! Use them with care. • Disadvantage: My spelling ability is deteriorating day-by-day because of over- reliance on WP spell-checkers. I am having great difficulty in writing even short-ish hand-written notes without spelling errors
  • 19. 19 Thesaurus • My favorite tool • Helps you find synonyms and, sometimes, antonyms as well
  • 20. 20 Tables • Tables are sometimes useful for presenting info in an ordered fashion • Most WP’s provide extensive table construction & manipulation features
  • 21. 21 Graphics & Drawings • You can insert graphics that are made using other apps into a WP document • Several WP’s have a built-in drawing tool, which can be used for adding simple diagrams (e.g. a flow chart, a simple street map) into a WP document
  • 22. 22 The Best Feature: Undo • Allows you to recover from your mistakes • Allows you to experiment without risk
  • 23. 23 Document View Mode • Most WP’s provide several ways of viewing a document • I normally work in and recommend what is known as the “Print Layout” view mode • In this view, the WP works in a true WYSIWYG mode
  • 24. 24 Print-Preview & Printing • Make sure to preview your document before printing it • Do this to make sure about the”look” of the document before it is printed • Most people these days either use inkjet printers or laser printers – Color inkjet printers cost less but are slower – B&W laser printers cost around twice as much, but are faster and generally have finer resolution – Color laser printers are expensive
  • 25. 25 Automation • Table of contents – TOC can be automatically generated – Page nos. in the TOC get readjusted automatically • Index – Can be automatically generated – Page nos. in the index get readjusted automatically • Application of predefined styles – Change style; text changes automatically throughout the doc • Headers & Footers – Page numbers • Spelling error auto-highlight
  • 27. 27 Getting On-Screen Help • All WP’s generally have some form of built-in help mechanism • To me, it seems like that many of those help- systems are designed to be “not-very-helpful”: they make finding answers to simple questions quite difficult • Nevertheless, do try them when you are searching for answers
  • 28. 28 Let’s try to use MS Word for creating a CV (Remember the TOC)
  • 30. 30 Assignment # 5 Write your 1-page CV using MS Word. Your CV should be similar to the one discussed during the lecture. You have the option of including any of the features provided by the word processor, but your must include the following: • Table • Headings • Bullets • Link to your e-mail address • Link to your Web page Consult the CS101 syllabus for the submission instructions & deadline
  • 31. 31 Today’s Lecture was the … • First among the four lectures that we plan to have on productivity software, a sub- category of application software • This first lecture was on word processing • We learnt about what we mean by word processing and also desktop publishing • We also discussed the usage of various functions provided by common word processors
  • 32. 32 Focus of the Next Lecture: Algorithms • To become familiar with the concept of algorithms – What they are? – What is there use? • To become able to write algorithms for simple problems
