Input is the action of entering data into a computer system for processing. Examples include typing on a keyboard or clicking a mouse, both of which allow data to enter a computer system for it to be processed. Output is what's produced after processing, storage refers to keeping data on a hard drive, and throughput is the rate at which data is processed or transmitted.
