Network
A network is a set of computers or computer systems connected to each other and can be used to send information or messages.
There are many types of computer networks. They are a local-area network (when computers are geographically close together, in the same building), a wide-area network (when computers are far from each other and they are connected with telephone lines or radio waves), a campus-area network (when computers are within a limited geographic area, such as a campus or military base), a metropolitan-area network (a data network designed for a town or city), and a home-area network (a network that connects a person’s digital devices).
A network enables computers and software to communicate and to share resources. Networks connected together form an internet. The connection of networks throughout the world is known as the Internet (note that a capital letter I is used) or, more simply, the Net.
