What is a computer network?

  1. A group of computers connected by wires

  2. A type of computer memory

  3. A type of operating system

  4. A group of computers connected by wireless signals

The correct answer is: A group of computers connected by wires

A computer network is a group of computers that are connected together and can communicate with each other through wires or wireless signals. This allows for the sharing of information, resources, and devices. Option B is incorrect because computer networks are not a type of memory, but rather a way for computers to interact. Option C is incorrect because computer networks are not an operating system, but rather a means of communication between computers. Option D is incorrect because it only mentions wireless signals, but computer networks can also be connected by wires.
