Software

"Before software can be resuable, it first has to be usable"

Ralph Johnson


Software  is also known as applications, programs or scripts. In contrast to physical hardware, computer software is used to operate computers and other devices such as mobile phones, tablets etc.


Application software is designed for the end user and is used for the purpose to perform special functions beyond the basic operation of the computer itself.


At a more basic level, System Software – a platform to run the application software, consists of low-level programs that interact with the computer.  These include; Operating Systems, Device Drivers and Utilities.


Programming software is a set of tools which enables the programmer to develop other software.
