Computers are any machine that manipulates data according to the instructions built into a program. They can range from small to large, and have a seemingly endless number of uses.

File Extensions

A File Extension is a set of characters attached to a filename, after the period. These characters are used to allow the computer, the software, and the user to figure out what type of data the file represents.

The different files on your computer, or on the Internet, can be confusing to some people. You never know what you are looking at, or downloading, if you do not have prior knowledge of what the file is. Select the first character below of the file extension you want.
