Dear friends, in today’s time, the development of technology is growing rapidly. And the development of computers is also playing an important role. You must have heard the name of software for some work or through someone, if you want to know about it, then we are going to tell you about this news in detail. In this post, we are going to give you specific complete information about what is software, what is called software, how many types of software are there and what is the function of software.
what is software
You must have heard the name of the computer. With the help of software, we can easily do the work of our need and it takes less time to do any work on the computer. Whatever work we do with the computer, computer software is used to do that work. To do any work on the computer, there is software related to that work. If there is no software on the computer, then we cannot do any work on it.
Just like computers, software is used to operate mobiles and tablets too. For example, now we are reading information about software, and for that, we are using a software on our mobile or computer, so the software is called a browser. Similarly, if you listen to music or watch a movie on your mobile or computer, then you use a music player to listen to the song and a video player to watch the movie. In this way, we use different software according to our needs on mobile and computer.
How the software works
Whatever work the computer has to do, for doing that work, many inputs are written in the computer which are in the understandable definition of the computer, which is called programming language. By reading these instructions, the computer can do our work with help and in a very short time, this group of instructions is called software. For example, if we have to use a calculator in the computer or mobile, then we just write those numbers in the calculator between which we have to do some calculation and we give it to the calculator or tell it what calculation we have to do between those numbers, our calculator gives us the result immediately.
Our calculator is in a software which has mathematics in it. We have written many instructions to do the calculations using which the calculator does the biggest calculations very quickly. There is no mistake in the calculations given by the software.
Types of Software
There are three types of software
- system softwareÂ
- Application Software

System Software
Software is the main software of computer or mobile which starts working as soon as the computer or mobile is turned on. System software keeps working internally in the computer on the back ground and helps in reducing the application software and hardware of the computer. System software cannot be uninstalled by the user. Without system software, no type of application software, utility software or hardware can be used in the computer. The names of some software are as follows-
