Computer appreciations - SS2 Commerce Lesson Note

Computer appreciation refers to having a basic understanding and knowledge of various computer-related concepts and functions. In simple terms, let's discuss Microsoft wares, opening documents, and storage of documents.

Microsoft wares refer to the software products developed by Microsoft Corporation, a prominent technology company. Microsoft offers a wide range of software applications and operating systems that are commonly used on personal computers. Some well-known Microsoft wares include Microsoft Windows operating system, Microsoft Office suite, and other productivity tools.

When it comes to opening documents, it usually refers to accessing and viewing files or documents on a computer. Documents can be in various formats, such as text files, spreadsheets, presentations, or multimedia files. To open a document, you typically need the appropriate software installed on your computer that supports that particular file format. For example, to open a Microsoft Word document, you would need the Microsoft Word application installed on your computer. Similarly, for other file types, such as Excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint presentations, you would need the corresponding Microsoft Office applications.

Storage of documents refers to saving and storing digital files on a computer or other storage devices. Computers typically have internal storage, such as a hard drive or solid-state drive (SSD), where you can save your documents. Documents can also be stored externally using removable storage devices like USB flash drives, external hard drives, or cloud storage services.

Saving documents is important to ensure that your work is preserved and accessible for future use. When you create or edit a document, it is a good practice to save it periodically to avoid losing any changes. When you save a document, it is stored in a specific file format and location of your choice. This allows you to retrieve and open the document later for further editing or sharing.

It is worth mentioning that Microsoft wares, including Microsoft Office applications, often provide features for creating, editing, and managing documents. For example, Microsoft Word allows you to create and format text documents, Excel enables you to create spreadsheets for data analysis, and PowerPoint allows you to create presentations with slides and multimedia elements.
