They are used in the calculation of physical variables such as voltage, pressure, temperature, speed. Whereas, A Digital computer is the most commonly used type of computer and they are extensively used for solving complex problems in the field of engineering & technology, design, research and data processing. Therefore statement 3 is correct. Microcomputers are also called as personal computers and in general parlance, the microprocessor, also known as the Central Processing Unit (CPU), is the brain of all computers and many household and electronic devices.
