Features: The book is divided into 8 chapters: Chapter 1: Basic Knowledge of Computing, Chapter 2: Basic Knowledge of Operating Systems, Chapter 3: Office Automation—Document Processing, Chapter 4: Office Automation—Spreadsheet Processing, Chapter 5: Office Automation—Presentation Processing, Chapter 6: Fundamentals of Database Management Systems, Chapter 7: Multimedia Applications, and Chapter 8: Network Applications—Internet Connectivity. These contents use software such as Windows 95, Office, SQLAnywhere, etc., as the experimental operation platforms for hands-on practice. This textbook primarily introduces topics such as database architecture, SQL language, and database security, enabling readers to understand the basic knowledge, operations, and qualities of large-scale databases. Each chapter in this textbook follows the following writing style: First, it proposes an application requirement, such as writing a letter, creating a student grade table, establishing a student basic information database, or creating a multimedia personal resume. These examples are used as a thread to connect the software operations and knowledge needed to complete them, providing readers with a specific operational context. After exemplary introductions to software operations, it rationally explains the openness and extensibility of such software, allowing readers to accumulate and improve their computer knowledge and operational skills while learning software operations, thereby adapting to the ever-changing social development. In each chapter, there are three key sections for readers to pay attention to: First, a general discussion of each software, which aims to broaden readers' perspectives beyond the specific content of the chapter, giving them a more comprehensive understanding of this type of software; Second, summaries of the writing approach and specific content of each chapter, which help readers review the chapters; Third, the exercise section. Due to the "implicit knowledge" in computer operations, which is naturally thought of or acquired in an operational environment, the exercises in this section are designed to help readers think critically.
