Explain and Discuss Characteristics of Second Generation Computer
The Second Generation Computer System Uses Transistors for enhanced performance
They Use punch cards for inputs and printouts for outputs
They reduced all operational time required for processing and handling any tasks and jobs
They were equipped to establish a connection between devices
The magnetic core technology is used for data and information storage
They consume less heat and energy
They are quite inexpensive
They require AC
Second-generation computers are small in size
They were faster in comparison with first-generation computers
They are portable compared to first-generation computers
Assembly language was used for programming
Hardware devices are less prone to failure
Manual assembly of individual components into a functional unit was still required
