                  COMPUTER SOFTWARE

                  A computer is an electronic machine. It cannot work by itself. A computer needs instructions
                  to do anything. These step-wise instructions are called software. Software tells the computer
                  what to do. The parts of a computer that we cannot see and touch is known as software.

                  For example, you play a movie on the computer from a pen drive. You can touch the pen drive
                  but you cannot touch the movie. This movie is the software and the pen drive is the hardware
                  which stores the movie and keeps it safe. There are two types of software: System software
                  and Application software.

                  System Software

                  The system software that controls and manages all the activities of a computer system is called
                  system software.
