Una computadora es una máquina que puede ser programada para llevar a cabo automáticamente secuencias de operaciones aritméticas o lógicas (computación). Las computadoras electrónicas digitales modernas pueden realizar conjuntos genéricos de operaciones conocidas como programas, que permiten a las computadoras realizar una amplia gama de tareas. El término sistema de computadora puede referirse a una computadora nominalmente completa que incluye el hardware, el sistema operativo, el software y el equipo periférico necesario y utilizado para la operación completa, o a un grupo de computadoras que están vinculadas y funcionan juntas, como una red de computadoras o un clúster de computadoras.
