MICRIOSOFT POWERPOINT:
Microsoft PowerPoint is a slide show presentation program developed by Microsoft. It was
officially launched on May 22, 1990, as a part of the Microsoft Office suite.
History
Originally designed for the Macintosh computer, the initial release was called "Presenter",
developed by Dennis Austin and Thomas Rudkin of Forethought, Inc. In 1987, it was renamed to
"PowerPoint" due to problems with trademarks, the idea for the name coming from Robert
Gaskins. In August of the same year, Forethought was bought by Microsoft for $14 million USD
($29.1 million in present-day terms), and became Microsoft's Graphics Business Unit, which
continued to develop the software further. PowerPoint was officially launched on May 22, 1990,
the same day that Microsoft released Windows 3.0.
PowerPoint introduced many new changes with the release of PowerPoint 97. Prior to
PowerPoint 97, presentations were linear, always proceeding from one slide to the next.
PowerPoint 97 incorporated the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) language, underlying all
macro generation in Office 97, which allowed users to invoke pre-defined transitions and effects
in a non-linear movie-like style without having to learn programming.
PowerPoint 2000 (and the rest of the Office 2000 suite) introduced a clipboard that could hold
multiple objects at once. Another change was that the Office Assistant was changed to be less
intrusive.
PowerPoint 2002 massively overhauled the animation engine, allowing users to create more
advanced and custom animations.
As of 2012, various versions of PowerPoint claim ~95% of the presentation software market
share, with installations on at least 1 billion computers. Among presenters world-wide, this
program is used at an estimated frequency of 350 times per second.
Operation
PowerPoint presentations consist of a number of individual pages or "slides". The "slide"
analogy is a reference to the slide projector. A better analogy would be the "foils" (or
transparencies/plastic sheets) that are shown with an overhead projector, although they are in
decline now. Slides may contain text, graphics, sound, movies, and other objects, which may be
arranged freely. The presentation can be printed, displayed live on a computer, or navigated
through at the command of the presenter. For larger audiences the computer display is often
projected using a video projector. Slides can also form the basis of webcasts.
Military excess
A "PowerPoint Ranger" is a military member who relies heavily on presentation software to the
point of excess. Some junior officers spend the majority of their time preparing PowerPoint
slides. Because of its usefulness for presenting mission briefings, it has become part of the
culture of the military, but is regarded as a poor decision-making tool. As a result some generals,
such as Brigadier-General Herbert McMaster, have banned the use of PowerPoint in their
operations. In September 2010, Colonel Lawrence Sellin was fired from his post at the ISAF for
publishing a piece critical of the over-dependence of military staffs on the presentation method
and bloated bureaucracy.
Artistic medium
Musician David Byrne has been using PowerPoint as a medium for art for years, producing a
book and DVD and showing at galleries his PowerPoint based artwork.[21] The expressions
"PowerPoint Art" or "pptArt" are used to define a contemporary Italian artistic movement which
believes that the corporate world can be a unique and exceptional source of inspiration for the
artist.
PowerPoint Viewer
Microsoft Office PowerPoint Viewer is a program used to run presentations on computers that do
not have PowerPoint installed. Office PowerPoint Viewer is added by default to the same disk or
network location that contains one or more presentations packaged by using the Package for CD
feature.
PowerPoint Viewer is installed by default with a Microsoft Office 2003 installation for use with
the Package for CD feature. The PowerPoint Viewer file is also available for download from the
Microsoft Office Online Web site.
Presentations password-protected for opening or modifying can be opened by PowerPoint
Viewer. The Package for CD feature allows packaging any password-protected file or setting a
new password for all packaged presentations. PowerPoint Viewer prompts for a password if the
file is open password-protected.
PowerPoint Viewer supports opening presentations created using PowerPoint 97 and later. In
addition, it supports all file content except OLE objects and scripting. PowerPoint Viewer is
currently only available for computers running on Microsoft Windows.
Versions
and there are additional special effects that can be used with pictures, such as 'Pencil effects'.
Additional transitions are also available. However, the ability to apply certain text effects
directly onto existing text, as seen in Microsoft Word is not available; a separate WordArt text
box is still required.
into
Make it special
To add special-effect visual impact to your story, insert and
edit images and video. Plus, apply inventive transitions
between slides and add pre-set animations and charts and graphics.
Be creative
Add a designers touch. With built-in alignment guides, you can intuitively align shapes,
text boxes, and videos on your slides.
Password protection
The Microsoft Office password protection is a security feature to protect Microsoft Office
documents with a user provided password.
Stay flexible
10
With Slide Navigator, you can quickly switch slidesin or out of sequencefrom a visual
grid viewable to you at a glance. Your audience sees only the slide youve selected.
Stay in control
With auto-extend, when you project your presentation to a second screen, your slides
automatically appear on the correct screens. No fumbling with settings and equipment.

Following are few of the important input devices which are used in a computer:
Keyboard
Keyboard is the most common and very popular input device which helps in
inputting data to the computer. The layout of the keyboard is like that of
traditional typewriter, although there are some additional keys provided for
performing additional functions.
Keyboards are of two sizes 84 keys or 101/102 keys, but now keyboards with 104 keys or 108
keys are also available for Windows and Internet.
The keys on the keyboard are as follows:
12
Mouse
Mouse is most popular pointing device. It is a very famous cursor-control device
having a small palm size box with a round ball at its base which senses the
movement of mouse and sends corresponding signals to CPU when the mouse buttons are
pressed.
Generally it has two buttons called left and right button and a wheel is present between the
buttons. Mouse can be used to control the position of cursor on screen, but it cannot be used to
enter text into the computer.
Advantages
Easy to use
Joystick
Joystick is also a pointing device which is used to move cursor position on a monitor
screen. It is a stick having a spherical ball at its both lower and upper ends. The
lower spherical ball moves in a socket. The joystick can be moved in all four
directions.
The function of joystick is similar to that of a mouse. It is mainly used in Computer Aided
Designing(CAD) and playing computer games.
Light Pen
Light pen is a pointing device which is similar to a pen. It is used to select a displayed menu
item or draw pictures on the monitor screen. It consists of a photocell and an optical system
placed in a small tube. When the tip of a light pen is moved over the monitor screen and pen
13
button is pressed, its photocell sensing element detects the screen location
and sends the corresponding signal to the CPU.
Track Ball
Track ball is an input device that is mostly used in notebook or laptop computer,
instead of a mouse. This is a ball which is half inserted and by moving fingers
on ball, pointer can be moved. Since the whole device is not moved, a track ball
requires less space than a mouse. A track ball comes in various shapes like a ball, a
button and a square.
Scanner
Scanner is an input device which works more like a photocopy machine. It is used
when some information is available on a paper and it is to be transferred to the
hard disc of the computer for further manipulation. Scanner captures
images from the source which are then converted into the digital form that can be stored on the
disc. These images can be edited before they are printed.
Digitizer
Digitizer is an input device which converts analog information
into digital form. Digitizer can convert a signal from the television
or
camera into a series of numbers that could be stored in a computer. They can be used by the
computer to create a picture of whatever the camera had been pointed at. Digitizer is also
known as Tablet or Graphics Tablet because it converts graphics and pictorial data into binary
inputs. A graphic tablet as digitizer is used for doing fine works of drawing and image
manipulation applications.
14
Microphone
Microphone is an input device to input sound that is then stored in digital
form. The microphone is used for various applications like adding sound to a
multimedia presentation or for mixing music.

LOGIC GATES
A logic gate is an elementary building block of a digital circuit. Most logic gates have two inputs
and one output. At any given moment, every terminal is in one of the
two binaryconditions low (0) or high (1), represented by different voltage levels. The logic state
of a terminal can, and generally does, change often, as the circuit processes data. In most logic
gates, the low state is approximately zero volts (0 V), while the high state is approximately five
volts positive (+5 V).
There are seven basic logic gates: AND, OR, XOR, NOT, NAND, NOR, and XNOR.
The AND gate is so named because, if 0 is called "false" and 1 is called "true," the gate acts in
the same way as the logical "and" operator. The following illustration and table show the circuit
symbol and logic combinations for an AND gate. (In the symbol, the input terminals are
at left and the output terminal is at right.) The output is "true" when both inputs are "true."
Otherwise,
the
output
is
"false."

The OR gate gets its name from the fact that it behaves after the fashion of the logical inclusive
"or." The output is "true" if either or both of the inputs are "true." If both inputs are "false," then
the output is "false."

The XOR ( exclusive-OR ) gate acts in the same way as the logical "either/or." The output is
"true" if either, but not both, of the inputs are "true." The output is "false" if both inputs are
"false" or if both inputs are "true." Another way of looking at this circuit is to observe that the
output is 1 if the inputs are different, but 0 if the inputs are the same.

A logical inverter , sometimes called a NOT gate to differentiate it from other types of electronic
inverter devices, has only one input. It reverses the logic state.

The NAND gate operates as an AND gate followed by a NOT gate. It acts in the manner of the
logical operation "and" followed by negation. The output is "false" if both inputs are "true."
Otherwise, the output is "true."

Using combinations of logic gates, complex operations can be performed. In theory, there is no
limit to the number of gates that can be arrayed together in a single device. But in practice, there
is a limit to the number of gates that can be packed into a given physical space. Arrays of logic
gates are found in digital integrated circuits (ICs). As IC technology advances, the required
physical volume for each individual logic gate decreases and digital devices of the same or
smaller size become capable of performing ever-more-complicated operations at ever-increasing
speeds.
