is an example for a word processor. Word processing in computer terminology
refers to typing, editing and formatting of any kind of document, which could
be a letter, memorandum, balance sheet or something similar. As the term
suggests, word simply processes words, i.e., textual information. You can use
it to print letters, reports, and booklets and so on in a suitable layout. A
word processor does this by simply formatting the information you or some one
else has keyed into the computer.

word is different from conventional typing in many ways. Here the document is
not printed while its is being keyed in. how ever, its image is displayed on
