Abstract
This series of articles is based on a course of five seminars which formed part of the Postgraduate Teaching Programme at the Crichton Royal Hospital. It aims to provide an introduction to computer terminology and to the most commonly used software applications for those with little or no previous knowledge of computers. The emphasis throughout is on what the personal computer can do rather than how to use specific applications. The articles refer mainly to the more common ‘IBM-Compatible’ computers.
