What is an example of output data?

  1. Sound

  2. Video

  3. Printer output

  4. Keyboard input

The correct answer is: Printer output

Output data refers to the information that is produced by a computer or electronic device and is made available to the user for viewing or further processing. An example of this is printed text or images from a printer, which falls under the category of printer output. Option A (Sound) and B (Video) are forms of input data, as they are received by the computer or electronic device to be processed and possibly displayed as output. Option D (Keyboard input) is also not an example of output data, as it refers to the user's actions of typing on a keyboard, which are not displayed by the computer as output. Additionally, option C (Printer output) specifies a specific type of output data, while the other options do not specify any type of output data. Therefore, C is the most accurate and specific example of output data among the given choices.
