Solution (By Examveda Team)
An input device is used to send data into the computer for processing.A paper tape reader is a type of input device that reads the holes punched into paper tape and converts the data into a binary format that the computer can understand.
It interprets the pattern of holes as binary code and transmits it digitally into the system.
Paper tape punch is an output device used to punch holes into the tape, not to read it.
Page reader and card punch also do not serve the purpose of reading punched paper tape.
Therefore, the correct device for this function is the paper tape reader.
