computer

A coffee machine can be considered a computer.This is because the definition of a computer is somethings that takes an input and outputs something else. Many common house objects are computers we just do not think of them in that way. A coffee machine has only a few buttons on it but it accepts commands by the user and will output a certain amount of hot coffee. Espresso machines are also computers as they make take the input from the user to output espresso and it can also steam milk for lattes. Although very simple a coffee machine as anywhere from 2 to maybe 8 buttons depends on which kind. Even the ones with two buttons are receiving data. My home coffee machine has 4 buttons they are the start button, grind on, grind off, and less than 4 cups. Each of these buttons has a specific outcome. The grind on/off is the button that tells the machine whether the beans that are in it should be grinded or if they are already grinded. If the beans are not grinded then you press grind on and the machine will grind the beans for you. The less than 4 cups button should only be pressed is you are making less than 4 cups, obviously. Lastly the start button is what runs the machine and when that is pressed the coffee will start to be made. There are many items in every house small or big that most people would not consider to be a computer but in reality they are computers, and computers have made our world a million times easier.
