In computer programming, a task is a basic unit of programming that an operating system controls. Depending on how the operating system defines a task in its design, this unit of programming may be an entire program or each successive invocation of a program. Since one program may make requests of other utility programs, the utility programs may also be considered tasks (or subtasks).
In general terms, a computer is a machine operating under the control of instructions stored in its own memory. These operations and instructions enable the computer to receive data from a user (input), transform and manipulate the data according to specified rules (process), produce results (output).
