The word “computer” does not have an officially recognized full form, as it is not an acronym. However, some people creatively refer to it as:
Common
Operating
Machine
Purposely
Used for
Technical and
Educational
Research
This is a mnemonic used to describe the general purpose of a computer, though it’s not universally accepted. In reality, “computer” comes from the Latin word “computare,” which means to calculate or process.
