inputted

Fed to computer

Inputted is the past tense of input, meaning to enter data into a computer or system: She inputted the figures into the spreadsheet.

The word competes with input as its own past tense—I input the numbers yesterday—and many consider inputted awkward or unnecessary.

Both forms are grammatically valid, though input alone predominates in technical contexts.
