 Software is a set of instructions or programs that tell a computer what to do. 💻

While hardware is the physical part of a computer (keyboard, screen, CPU), software is the invisible part that runs on it.

Simple definition

Software = programs and applications that run on a computer or phone.

  • Microsoft Word – used to write documents 📝

  • Google Chrome – used to browse the internet 🌐

  • Windows – an operating system that runs computers 🖥️

  • WhatsApp – used for messaging 📱

Types of software

  1. System Software

In short:
