Input

An input is an interface that converts your actions into bits and bytes (information that the computer can use).  Input can also mean the action performed on an input or the information given by the input.


Example
A keyboard is an input since you can type on it and the computer receives information about which keys you have typed.

The bits and bytes representing the letters you type are also called inputs.

Another input is a camera connected to the computer

The bits and bytes that the computer receives from the camera is also an input.
