What is the Network?
In the computer field, a network is a system of interconnected computers that communicate
with each other. “Internet” and “LAN” are the two most common words used to refer to
networks. The Internet is the vast network to which computers all over the world are
connected. Computers connected to the Internet anywhere in the world can exchange
information with one another. On the other hand, LAN is the abbreviation for “Local Area
Network” and means a network within a limited area (in an office, for example).
