So what is software?
Computer software, or simply software, is the collection of instructions that tell the computer about what and how to do work. Software with the help of hardware performs the work. You can't touch software physically, ok you know that !!!
Basically, the software is divided into types which are:
System software & Application Software
Software Type:
System Software
System Softwares are designed to run a computer's hardware and application program. System software works as an interface between computer hardware and user applications. System Softwares also provide a platform to run application software. System software includes :
OS - Operating System that manages all the other required and so necessary programs on the computer.
Device Drivers - which controls and manages a particular type of device connected to your system.
Utilities - such as the disk defragmenter and System Restore, and development tools, such as compilers and debuggers.
Application Software
Application software is a software that is designed for the end-user. It is a software that uses the computer system to perform special functions or provide entertainment functions beyond the basic operation of the computer itself.
