Computer Classification:
On the base of the acceptance of abstracts computers can be classified as:
1. Analog Computers.
2. Agenda Computers.
3. Amalgam Computers.
Analog Computers: are in which after magnitudes are represented by concrete quantities, such as electric current, voltage or resistance, automated movements etc.
Analog computers acquire abstracts & again action it to aftermath analog data.
Digital Computers: A agenda computer on abstracts in the anatomy of digits , rather than the concrete quantities acclimated in analog computers. That is , it’s ascribe charge be detached rather than connected & may abide of aggregate of numbers , characters & adapted symbols , accounting in adapted programming language.

Special purpose agenda computer: These computers advised to break problems of a belted blazon i.e. advised to be abnormally able in a assertive chic of applications.
Ex: Computer installed in abrasion machine.
Hybrid Computers: Amalgam computer is the aftereffect of the affiliation of analog computer apparatus & agenda components. This affiliation is acquired by agenda –to-analog advocate and analog –to-digital converter.
A amalgam computer may use or aftermath analog abstracts or agenda data.
It accepts a continuously capricious ascribe which is again adapted into a set of detached ethics for agenda processing.
Hybrid Machines are about acclimated in accurate applications or in authoritative automated processes.
