What is the use of an icon on a computer?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: To represent a program or file with a small picture
An icon is a small graphic representation used in a graphical user interface to identify and provide access to a file, folder, application, device, or command. Clicking or selecting it can open or perform the associated action. An icon does not generate electricity, cut paper, or wash a computer; those choices confuse a screen symbol with a physical tool.
