Software's In Computers & The Use of Software's Technology

                                                        SOFTWARES

Typically, there are two major classifications of software, namely System Software and Application Software.

• System Software. A system software aids the user and the hardware to function and interact with each other. 
• Application Software. 
• Freeware. 
• Shareware. 
• Open-source.
• Software.

Software is a set of instructions, data or programs used to operate computers and execute specific tasks. Opposite of hardware, which describes the physical aspects of a computer, software is a generic term used to refer to applications, scripts and programs that run on a device. Software can be thought of as the variable part of a computer, and hardware the invariable part.

System software controls a computer's internal functioning, chiefly through an operating system, and also controls such peripherals as monitors, printers, and storage devices. Application software, by contrast, directs the computer to execute commands given by the user.

System software is a type of computer program that is designed to run a computer's hardware and application programs. System software is of three main types : Operating system. Language processor. Utility software.

The two main types of software are system software and application software.

System software is a type of computer program designed to run a computer's hardware and application programs. System software coordinates the activities and functions of the hardware and software. In addition, it controls the operations of the computer hardware and provides an environment or platform for all the other types of software to work in. The best-known example of system software is the operating system (OS), which manages all the other programs in a computer.

Application software is a computer software package that performs a specific function for an end user or, in some instances, for another application. An application can be self-contained or a group of programs. The program is a set of operations that runs the application for the user. Applications use the computer's OS and other supporting programs, typically system software, to function. Application software is different than other software that might come pre-bundled with a computer's operating system, such as a utility.

System software is a collection of programs that supports computer operations. It is closely tied to computer architecture. By taking care of basic tasks such as input, output and data storage, system software allows application developers to focus on specific tasks their software needs to accomplish.

Software is a set of instructions which enable the hardware to perform a specific set of tasks.
