Unit - 1 Topic - 6: Programming For Input and Output

This document discusses input and output devices and their programming. It describes the typical components of I/O devices including electronic, mechanical, analog and digital parts. It also explains that registers act as buffers between the CPU and I/O devices for reading, writing and checking status, and that I/O programming can occur through instructions or memory mapping. Additionally, it notes that polling involves reading a device's status register to check if a process has completed.
