Obtaining information about other systems on your network, accessing other systems, and connecting directly with other users are all tasks that can be accomplished using several network tools.

Sensors, routers, switches are some of the components.

[River Brown]

RAM, ROM, Printer, Monitor, Mouse, Hard Disk, and other types of hardware are examples of hardware. Google Chrome, MySQL, MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Notepad, Photoshop, and more programmes are examples of software.
