Software



Software is a program that consists of instructions what to do by the computer hardware. These instructions written by the programmer is done using a specific programming language. Actually computer knows only the electronic signal, which is represented in binary code with a value of 1 and 0. So too should the written instructions must be in the form of binary numbers that can be understood by computers. However, it is very difficult and will frustrate programmers. To overcome this, the instructions can be created with a programming language.
This is the language that will translate the program into machine language instructions that can be understood by computers. The programming language known as "software language". Program written by computer programmers aimed at solving a specific problem called software applications.
The software can be categorized into three parts:...
1. Operating system software, which is a program written to control and coordinate the activities of the computer system. Examples of Windows 7, Novell Netware, Linux and others.
2. Language Software, which is a program used to translate instructions written in a programming language into machine language that can be understood by computers.
3. Application Software, which is a program written and translated by language software to solve a particular application. Example MS Word, MS Excel and others.
