What is a "network"?

A network refers to a group of electronic devices, such as computers, that are connected to each other to allow the sharing of data and resources. These devices can communicate with one another, enabling users to send information, access files, or use shared printers and other equipment. Networks can vary in size, from small setups in a home to large systems connecting many devices across a city or even globally. They help make tasks more efficient by allowing information to be transferred quickly between devices.
