Introduction [Module 1]

 

  1. What is Computer

A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve and process data. You may already know that you can use the computer to write documents, send emails, play games, and browse the web. You can also use it to edit or create spreadsheets, presentations, and even videos.

  1. History of computers

Before computers were developed, people used sticks, stones and bones as counting tools. As technology advanced and the human mind improved over time, more computing devices were developed such as Abacus, Napier Bones, etc. These tools were used as computers to perform mathematical calculations, but not too complex.

Some of the popular computing devices are described below, which evolve from the oldest to the latest or most advanced technology:

abacus

About 4000 years ago, the Chinese invented Abacus, and it is believed to be the first computer. The history of computers begins with the birth of Abacus.

Structure: Abacus is basically a wooden rack consisting of metal rods on which a layer of pearls is mounted.

Work of Abacus: In Abacus, beads were moved by the Abacus operator according to certain rules for performing arithmetic calculations. In some countries such as China, Russia, and Japan, Abacus is still used by their people.

Napier’s Bones

Napier’s Bones was a manually operated calculation tool and as the name indicates, it was invented by John Napier. In this device, they used 9 different ivory strips (bones) marked with numbers to multiply and divide for calculations. It was also the first machine to use a decimal point system for calculations.

Pascaline

It is also called arithmetic machine or addition machine. Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician-philosopher, invented it between 1642 and 1644. It was the first mechanical and automatic calculator. It is invented by Pascal to help his father, who is a tax accountant in his work or calculations. It can add and subtract in quick time. It was originally a wooden box with a series of gears and wheels. This is done by rotating the wheel such that when a wheel is rotated in a circle, it rotates the neighbor wheel and a series of windows are given on top of the wheels to read the yoga.

Stepped reckoner or leibniz wheel

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, a German mathematician-philosopher, developed this device in 1673 by improving Pascal’s invention to develop this machine. It was originally a digital mechanical calculator, and was called a step reconnaissance because it was made of flute drums instead of gear (used in previous models of Pascaline).

differential engine

Charles Babbage, also known as the “father of the modern computer”, designed the differential engine in the early 1820s. The differential engine was a mechanical computer capable of performing simple calculations. It works with the help of steam because it was a steam-driven calculation machine, and it was designed to solve tables of numbers such as logarithmic tables.

 

Analytical Engine

Again in 1830 Charles Babbage developed another calculation machine that was the analytical engine. The analytical engine was a mechanical computer that used punch cards as input. It was able to perform or solve any mathematical problem and store information in the form of permanent memory (storage).

Tabulation Machine

An American statistician Herman Hollerith invented this machine in the year 1890. The tabuling machine was a mechanical tabulator based on punch cards. It was able to tabulate data and record or sort data or information. This machine was used by the US Census in the year 1890. Hollerith’s tabuling machine company was started by Hollerith and this company later became International Business Machine (IBM) in the year 1924.

differential analyst

Differential Analyzer was the first electronic computer introduced in the United States in the year 1930. It was originally an analog device invented by Onenover Bush. This machine has vacuum tubes to switch electrical signals to perform calculations. It was able to perform 25 calculations in just a few minutes.

Mark I

In the year 1937, major changes began in the history of computers when Howard Aiken planned to develop a machine that could perform large numbers of large calculations or calculations. In 1944, the Mark I computer was created as a partnership between IBM and Harvard. It was also the first programmable digital computer to mark a new era in the computer world.

Generations of computers

First generation computers

In the period 1940-1956, it was referred to as the period of the first generation of computers. These machines are slow, spacious and expensive. In this generation of computers, vacuum tubes were used as the basic components of the CPU and memory. In addition, they mainly relied on batch operating systems and punch cards. Magnetic tape and paper tape were used as output and input devices. For example ENIAC, UNIVAC-1, EDVAC, etc.

Second Generation Computers

Over a period of the year, 1957-1963 was referred to as the period of the second generation of computers. It was transistor computer time. In the second generation of computers, transistors (which were cheap in cost) are used. Transistors are also compact and consume less power. Transistor computers are faster than first generation computers. For primary memory, magnetic core was used, and secondary memory for storage purposes for magnetic disks and tapes. In second generation computers, COBOL and FORTRAN are used as assembly languages and programming languages, and batch processing and multiprogramming operating systems were used in these computers.

For example IBM 1620, IBM 7094, CDC 1604, CDC 3600, etc.

Third Generation Computers

In the third generation of computers, integrated circuits (ICs) were used instead of transistors (in the second generation). A single IC consists of multiple transistors that increase the power of the computer and also reduce the cost. Third generation computers are more reliable, efficient and smaller in size. It used remote processing, time-sharing, and multiprogramming as the operating system. FORTRON-II to IV, COBOL, and PASCAL ARE HIGH-LEVEL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES that were used.

For example IBM-360 series, Honeywell-6000 series, IBM-370/168, etc.

Fourth Generation Computers

The period 1971-1980 was mainly the time of fourth generation computers. VLSI (Very Large Scale Integrated) circuit was used in this. VLSI is a chip that contains millions of transistors and other circuit elements and because of these chips, computers of this generation are more compact, powerful, faster and affordable (less in cost). Real-time, time-sharing and distributed operating systems are used by these computers. C and C++ are used as programming languages in this generation of computers. For example Star 1000, PDP 11, CRY-1, CRY-X-MP, etc.

Fifth Generation Computers

Since 1980 – to this day these computers have been used. ULSI (Ultra Large Scale Integration) technology is used in fifth generation computers instead of VLSI technology of fourth generation computers. Processor chips are used in these computers with ten million electronic components. Parallel processing hardware and AI (Artificial Intelligence) software are also used in fifth generation computers. Programming languages such as C, C++, Java, .NET, etc. is used. for example desktop, laptop, notebook,

Ultrabook, etc.

    • Example: robotic computer, factory powered by computer powered cars.

    • Once you provide a line of tasks to the computer, it can continue to move until it completes all the tasks.

    • Humans need to instruct computers to perform tasks. Using these instructions, the processing of the task can be controlled without human contact.

    • In recent years, computer software applications are trained to find problems automatically using a concept called machine learning.

  1. Computer Application

         Basic application of computer

Computer Application

Basic applications of computers- Nowadays computers have been employed in almost all aspects of professional and personal life. Some of the areas where computers are being used are as follows:

1. Education computers- have proved to be excellent teachers. Educational institutions are using computers in many ways such as tele-education, virtual classrooms, online classes, etc.

2. Science and engineering- scientists have been its users for a long time. A new adventure among scientists is the idea of a collaborative, an internet-based collaborative laboratory, in which researchers from around the world can easily work together even at distances.

3. Industry computers- are used here to control the continuous operation of manufacturing systems and machinery. Parameters such as temperature, pressure, volume are monitored and controlled by computers. Robotics, developed with the help of computers, plays a very important role here.

4. Entertainment Our entertainment- and enjoyment time has also been influenced by computerization.

5. Administration-Various departments of the administration government use computers for their planning, (Morgencontrol and law enforcement activities).

6. Health computers- play a very important role in this field. Activities like scanning, X-ray, tele-medicine, patient monitoring, patient records, diagnosis, etc. are done with the help of computers.

7. Multimedia – This is the field related to the computer controlled integration of text, graphics, images, animation, audio and any other media where each type of information can be digitally represented, stored, transmitted and processed.

10. Business- Using a wide range of business software a company’s marketing division can produce sales forecasts and formulate new strategies.

11. Commerce- This is the activity of buying and selling goods and services on a particular large scale.

12. Publishing Computer – has made the publishing process an easy one. Without a computer, the various parts of the publication—text, images, and graphics—must be created individually, then cut and pasted to create a page layout.

Components of computer systems

  1. a) Hardware

Hardware, abbreviated as HW, refers to all physical components of a computer system, including the equipment associated with it. You cannot create a computer or use software without using hardware. The screen on which you are reading this information is also a hardware.

central processing unit

A central processing unit is also called a processor, central processor or microprocessor. It fulfills all the important functions of the computer. It receives instructions from both hardware and active software and produces outputs accordingly. It stores all important programs such as operating systems and application software. CPU also helps input and output devices to communicate with each other. Due to these characteristics of the CPU, it is often referred to as the brain of a computer.

The CPU is installed or inserted into the CPU socket located on the motherboard. In addition, it provides a heat sink to absorb and destroy heat to keep the CPU cool and work smoothly.

 

Generally, a CPU has three components:

  • ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit)

  • control unit

  • Memory or storage unit

Keyboard, Mouse and VDU

A keyboard is one of the primary input devices that allows users to input text into a computer or any other electronic machinery. It is a peripheral device that is the most basic way for the user to communicate with the computer. It consists of several buttons, which create numbers, symbols, and letters, and creates special keys such as Windows and Alt keys, including performing other tasks. The design of the keyboard comes from the typewriter keyboard, and the numbers and letters on the keyboard are arranged in that way, which helps to type quickly.

The above keyboard design is called QWERTY design because the upper-left corner of the keyboard consists of its first six letters. Although the keyboard design is derived from typewrite, nowadays, it has many other keys as well as alt/ip keyboard. Options, controls, and Windows keys are also included, which can be used as shortcuts to perform special operations in conjunction with other keys. For example, if you press Control + S while you work on a document, it will save the document you are working on. In addition, most keyboards have function keys (F1 to F12 or F16) at the top of the keyboard and the arrow keys are arranged in the negative side used to perform many tasks.

Types of Keyboard

Most computer users use a standard keyboard, which connects to the computer. Although there are many types of computer keyboards, such as the following are:

  1. Flexible Keyboard: This is a kind of keyboard made of soft silicone with highly portable. It is water and dust resistant and does not require frequent cleaning. It functions similarly to a standard keyboard and the connection connects to the computer via a serial port. These types of keyboards can also be more durable in some ways than traditional keyboards.

The flexible keyboard is made of soft silicone which protects it from many different substances. For example, if you use a keyboard near a liquid space, silicone skin provides excellent protection against spills. In addition, it does not sound when used; That is why it is also called silent keyboard. These keyboards are useful for travel time as they can be rolled into a bag and made flexible in outdoor conditions.

  1. Wireless keyboard: It is a computer keyboard that is connected to a computer, laptop or tablet without any cable. Users can move the wireless keyboard around without placing it on the desk as it offers users portability and flexibility. It is designed by stainless steel material which extends its life for a long time. It can set up very easily by plugging the USB receiver into the computer. It uses light waves to transmit signals to other infrared-enabled devices because it is based on infrared technology. Some wireless keyboards use radio frequency technology, which communicates through signals with a range from 27 MHz to 2.4 GHz.

  2. Mechanical keyboard: It is made with high quality which is commonly used in both home and office. It is designed for long life with high durability and responsiveness. It provides crisp click sound, moderate resistance, and better response to gaming performance and final typing. It offers better features such as framing, switches, type print methods, functionality, PCB board, key construction, lighting, or more than traditional rubber dome keyboards.

  3. Virtual Keyboard: This is a software-based keyboard that enables users to type without the need for physical keys. It is an alternative to a physical keyboard or digital representation of a QWERTY keyboard. This type of keyboard usually consists of several pages of characters, including numbers, letters, punctuation marks, and symbols. Some virtual keyboards also include options to insert emojis, stickers, or animateds, depending on the device’s operating system. Devices with virtual keyboards are tablets, smartphones and other portable devices, as these devices do not require the constant use of physical keyboards.

Examples of virtual keyboards

  1. Gaming Keyboard: A keyboard that contains some specific keys used for gamers is known as a gaming keyboard. W, S, D, A, and arrow keys are widely used for games on standard QWERTY keyboards. Gaming keyboards (mostly mechanical keyboards), the key replaces unnecessary depression that provides fast action for the game.

Mainly used on US keyboards today. Sol, Christopher Sholes and Carlos Gleeden created a type-writer whose picture is shown below:

 

rat

The mouse is a small, movable device that lets you control a series of things on a computer.  Most types of icons have two buttons, and some will have a wheel in the middle of the buttons. Most types of mouse connect to a computer by cable, and use the power of a computer to work.

V.D.U.

The monitor, commonly called the Visual Display Unit (VDU), is the main output device of a computer. It creates images from small points, called pixels that are arranged in rectangular form. The sharpness of the image depends on the number of pixels. Two types of viewing screens are used for the monitor.

Other input devices

An input device is a term for a physical piece of hardware that connects to a primary device such as a computer to provide user input. Input devices are generally a class of peripheral devices that connect to the primary device. Top examples include: keyboard.

    List of input devices

  • keyboard

  • rat

  • scanner

  • Light pen

  • Barcode Reader

  • microphone

  • Touchscreen

  • joystick

  • webcam

Other output devices

Output devices are used to convert computer-produced output into a human-readable form. The output device takes information from the computer and presents it on projection, display or paper.

Examples of computer output devices

  • A monitor is an output device that displays the output as images on a digital screen. …

  • Printer is another peripheral device used as an output device. …

  • Computer speaker. …

  • GPS (Global Positioning System) …

  • Sound card. …

  •  

 

  1. Computer memory and storage devices

Computer Storage Device Definition: A hardware device that can be used to store digital data and applications that can be in the form of images, video, audio, etc. is called a storage device. It is a major component of a computer and the hard drive is one of its examples.

  1. b) Software

Software is a set of instructions, data or programs that are used to operate a computer and perform specific tasks. This is in contrast to hardware, which describes the physical aspects of a computer. Software is a general term used to refer to applications, scripts, and programs running on a device.

  1. Application Software

What is Application Software?

The term “application software” refers to software that performs specific tasks for the user. When a user directly interacts with a piece of software, it is called application software. The sole purpose of application software is to assist the user in performing specified tasks. Popular web browsers like Microsoft Word and Excel, as well as Firefox and Google Chrome, are examples of application software. It also includes a range of mobile apps, including apps like WhatsApp for communication and games like Candy Crush Saga. There are also app versions of popular services, such as weather or transportation information, as well as apps that allow users to connect with businesses. Global Positioning System (GPS), graphics, multimedia, presentation software, desktop publishing software, and so on are examples of such software.

  1. System Software

System software is a type of computer program designed to run a computer’s hardware and application programs. If we think of computer systems as a layered model, then system software is the interface between hardware and user applications. The operating system is the most well-known example of system software.

  1. Utility Software

Utility software includes all systems and programs on a computer system that maintain its functionality. A computer’s utility software includes components that help the operating system optimize, maintain, organize, and manage how it functions in all situations.

  1. Open Source and Proprietary Software

One way to classify software is through ownership and licensing. There are two types of proprietary and licensing software:

  • Open Source Software

  • Proprietary Software

While both types of software are usually widely available, they differ significantly in what they can and cannot be done.

Open source software can be free of copyright and is usually available to anyone. The proprietary software is copyrighted and only available under license.

  1. Multimedia and Entertainment

Multimedia is often used in the entertainment industry which is mainly used  in making movies, short films, 2D animations, 3D animations and VFX. Multimedia games are the talk of the town these days that can be accessed online with a good internet connection.

Introduction to GUI Based Opterating Systems [Module 2]

Operating System

An operating system (OS) is a program that, after initially loaded into a computer by a boot program, manages all other application programs in the computer. Application programs use the operating system by requesting services through a defined application program interface (API).

Basics of popular operating systems [Linux, Windows]

 

An operating system is the most important software that runs on a computer. It manages the computer’s memory and processes as well as all its software and hardware. It allows you to communicate with the computer without knowing how to speak the computer’s language.  Without an operating system, a computer is useless.

Linux

Linux (pronounced LINN-ux)  is a family of open-source operating systems, meaning they can be modified and distributed by anyone around the world. This is  different from proprietary software like Windows  , which can only be modified by the company that owns it. The advantages of Linux are that it’s free, and there are many different distributions—or versions—you can choose from.

Microsoft Windows

Microsoft created the Windows operating system in the mid-1980s. There have been many different versions of Windows, but the most recent are Windows 10 (released in 2015), Windows 8 (2012), Windows 7 (2009), and Windows Vista (2007). Windows  comes pre-loaded on most new PCs  , which  helps make it the most popular operating system in the  world  .

User interface for desktops and laptops

A GUI (Graphical User Interface) is a system of interactive visual components for a computer. A GUI displays objects that convey information, and represent actions that the user can take. Objects change color, size, or visibility when the user interacts with them.

Computers, like desktops and  laptops, usually use graphical user interfaces. Some software however use different interfaces, such as command prompts using a text-based interface. Handheld devices also commonly use graphical user interfaces.

Taskbar

Taskbar is a user interface component in the Microsoft operating system that allows quick access to open applications, files, and system settings. It’s usually located at the bottom of the screen and provides quick access to important features like the Start menu, system tray, and task manager. To start applications, switch between open applications and access system settings, and users can use the taskbar. Additionally, the taskbar can be changed to fit the user’s needs and preferences. For example, the size and placement of icons can be changed, and new icons can be added for commonly used programs.

sign

 

 Icons are small graphics that are used to symbolize common functions, files, devices, and directories ·              Content symbol variables  are icon fonts, a new font format.

    Start Menu

 

The Microsoft Windows Start menu is the primary location in Windows for locating your installed programs and finding any files or folders. By default, the Start menu can be accessed by clicking in the lower-left corner of the Windows screen. The picture shows an example of the Windows 7 Start menu.

Computer Communication and the Internet

 

Module 6

 

 

Basics of Computer Networks

Local Area Network

LAN stands for Local Area Network. A network is a group of two or more connected computers, and a LAN is a network contained within a small geographical area, usually within a single building. Home WiFi networks and small business networks are common examples of LANs.

A local area network (LAN) consists of a series of computers that are connected together to form a network in a confined space. The computer in a LAN is equipped with TCP/IP. IP connects to each other via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. A LAN is generally exclusive to an organization, such as a school, office, association, or church.

 

Wide Area Network

A wide-area network (WAN) is the technology that connects your offices, data centers, cloud applications, and cloud storage together. It is called a wide area network because it extends beyond a single building or large complex to include a specific geographical area, or even multiple locations spread across the world.

 

 

 

Network Topology

A network topology is the arrangement with which computer systems or network devices are connected to each other. Topology can define both the physical and logical aspect of the network. Both logical and physical topology can be similar or different in the same network.

point-to-point

Point-to-point networks consist of exactly two hosts such as a computer, switch or router, back to back connected servers using a piece of cable. Often, the receiving end of one host is associated with sending the end of another and vice versa.

If the hosts are logically point-by-point connected, there may be several intermediate devices. But the final hosts are unaware of the underlying network and look at each other as if they are directly connected.

Bus Topology

In the case of bus topology, all devices share a single communication line or cable. Simply topology can have problems when sending multiple host data at the same time. Therefore, simply topology is either csma/csma. THE CD uses technology or simply recognizes a host as the master to solve the issue. It is one of the simplest forms of networking where the failure of one device does not affect other devices. But the failure of the shared communication line can cause all other devices to stop working.

Both ends of the shared channel have line Terminator. The data is sent in only one direction and as soon as it reaches the extreme end, terminator removes the data from the line.

Star Topology

All hosts in star topology are connected to a central device, known as a hub device, that uses a point-to-point connection. That is, a point-to-point connection exists between the host and the hub. The hub device can be any of the following:

  • Layer-1 devices such as hubs or repeaters

  • Layer-2 devices such as switches or bridges

  • Layer-3 devices such as routers or gateways

As in bus topology, the hub acts as a single point of failure. If the hub fails, the connectivity of all hosts to all other hosts fails. Every communication between hosts takes place only through the hub. The star topology is not expensive because in order to connect another host, only one cable is needed and the configuration is simple.

Ring Topology

In ring topology, each host machine connects to precisely two other machines, forming a circular network structure. When a host tries to send or send a message to a host that is not adjacent to it, the data travels through all intermediate hosts. To connect another host to the existing structure, the administrator may only need one more additional cable.

Failure of any host results in the failure of the entire ring. Thus, every connection in the ring has a point of failure. There are methods that employ another backup ring.

Mesh Topology

In this type of topology, one host is attached to one or several hosts. This topology has hosts in a point-to-point connection with every other host or may even have hosts that are in a point-to-point connection for only a few hosts.

Hosts in mesh topology also serve as relays to other hosts that do not have direct point-to-point links. Mesh technology comes in two types:

  • Full Mesh: All hosts have a point-to-point connection to every other host in the network. Thus an N(n-1)/2 connection is required for each new host. It provides the most reliable network structure among all network topology.

  • Partially trap: Not all hosts have a point-by-point connection to every other host. Hosts connect to each other in somewhat arbitrary way. This topology exists where we need to provide reliability to certain hosts.

 

Tree Topology

Also known as hierarchical topology, it is the most common form of network topology currently in use. This topology mimics as extended star topology and simply inherits the properties of topology.

This topology is designed to change the network to multiple levels/levels of the network. Divides into layers. Mainly in LAN, a network is divided into three types of network devices. The lowest access-layer is where computers are attached. The middle layer is known as the distribution layer, which acts as an intermediary between the upper layer and the lower layer. The highest layer is known as the core layer, and it is the central point of the network, i.e. the root of the tree from which all nodes become forks.

There is a point-to-point relationship between all neighboring hosts. Just like topology, if the root goes down, the entire network suffers, although this is not a point of failure. Each connection serves as a point of failure, the failure of which divides the network into unattainable segments.

Daisy Chen

This topology combines all hosts in a linear fashion. Similar to ring topology, all hosts are connected to only two hosts, except the last hosts. This means, if the final hosts in the Daisy series are connected it represents the ring topology.

Each link in the Daisy chain topology represents a single point of failure. Each link failure divides the network into two segments. Each intermediate host works as a relay for its immediate hosts.

Hybrid Topology

A network structure that has more than one topology in its design is called a hybrid topology. The merits and demerits of all topology involving hybrid topology are inherited.

The above figure represents an arbitrarily hybrid topology. Combination topology can include features of star, ring, bus, and daisy-chain topology. Most WAN are connected via dual-ring topology and the networks connected to them are mostly star topology networks. The Internet is the best example of the largest hybrid topology

Internet

The Internet is a technology of connecting multiple computers together through a network. There are different types of networks that combine to form the Internet. Different types of small networks include local area networks (LANs), personal area networks (PAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN), campus area networks (CAN), etc.

 

Internet and the concept of WWW

In simple terms, WWW is just a common point of connectivity for information sharing that is facilitated by a global network of computers. On the other hand, there is a connection between the Internet, computers and countless other devices that make up a vast network of systems.

 

 

Basics of Internet Architecture

Internet architecture is a meta-network, which refers to a congregation of thousands of different networks interacting with a common protocol. In simple terms, it is referred to as an internetwork that is connected using a protocol. The protocol used is TCP/IP. IP.

The Internet architecture relies on a wide array of additional protocols to function. IP, TCP, and UDP are key components in data transmission, but, to be effective and productive, other protocols must help.

 

Services on the Internet

ISPs and examples [broadband/broadband] Dialup/ WiFi]

Verizon, Spectrum and AT&T are some examples of ISPs. Earlier ISPs used direct subscriber line (DSL) and cable ISP options to connect the general public to the Internet, especially those who lived in urban areas.

An Internet Service Provider (ISP) is a company that provides access to the Internet. ISPs can provide this access through multiple means including dial-up, DSL, cable, wireless and fiber optic connections. A variety of companies operate as ISPs, including cable providers, mobile carriers, and telephone companies.

Internet Access Technology

Currently, broadband technologies such as cable internet and ADSL are the most widely used methods for internet access. The speed, cost, reliability and availability of Internet access depend on the region, internet service provider and type of connection.

Body: The main paragraph of your email that communicates the main message.

 

Using e-mail

E-mail means electronic mail or electronic mailer. The most commonly used feature of a network in the field of communication is e-mail. It is the transmission of messages from one computer to another. Communication can be between two to several users.

Typically, an email header contains the following information:

  • This message provides a summary of the topic and is displayed in a separate line above the body of the message. For example, a subject line might say “company mission statement” or “employee stock purchase plan.”

  • Sender (from). This field is the sender’s email address. If it is associated with the email address, a display name may also be shown instead. Most email clients fill this field automatically.

  • Date and time(s) received . This field shows the local time and date when the message was created. This is a mandatory header field that is automatically filled in by most email clients.

  • If a user  clicks on the Reply button  , this field automatically populates the message with the sender’s email address, which now becomes the “recipient”.

  • Recipient (two). This field shows the first and last name of the e-mail recipient, as configured by the sender.

  • Recipient email address. This is the recipient’s email address or where the message was sent.

  • Carbon Copy (CC). field includes the email addresses of people who need to receive the email but are not expected to reply. When a person presses Reply All, all CC addresses receive feedback.

  • Blind Carbon Copy (BCC). If a sender doesn’t want their recipient to know who received the email, they can use the BCC field to enter those addresses. Addresses in the BCC list do not respond when a reply presses All.

  • Attachment. This field contains any files attached to the message.

mischievou

This is the content of the email. It can contain anything the user wants to send, including text, video, or file attachments. Depending on the email client used, the email body is replaced by plain text or. While plain text messages may not have special formatting or multimedia elements, HTML email enables special formatting and inclusion of multimedia options within the body of the message.
