Hardware

Hardware refers to the physical components of a computer system or electronic device, as opposed to software, which consists of programs and data. Examples of hardware include processors, memory modules, storage devices, input/output devices, and peripheral components. Hardware components work together to process, store, and manipulate data, enabling computers and electronic devices to perform various functions and tasks.

Think of Hardware as the digital building blocks. Just as building blocks form the foundation of structures, hardware components form the foundation of electronic devices, enabling them to perform tasks and functions.
