Abstract

A computer controlled by a voice input has a speech recognition section for converting a keyword of a program which is entered by the voice input and corresponds to a start number, thereby obtaining a digital code. The digital code data which indicates the keyword selects the start number corresponding to the storage content of a table stored in a program memory. The start number data is used to access a start address of the corresponding program, thereby starting and executing the program. Also disclosed is a system wherein when a chosen key of a key input device is operated while a voice operator guidance is generated, a key-in signal is produced to forcibly stop the ongoing guidance. In particular, when a plurality of voice operator guidances are provided, the computer learns the state of the operation by the operator from the manner of the forcible stop, and automatically stops the generation of the voice guidance on a specific item from the next processing.
