What is Software
Software is the part of computer that we can only see and work on, software is used to simplify working on computer, nowadays software is created according to work, like Work like software. Software is prepared by software programmers in large companies keeping in mind the need of the user, some of it is available for free and some have to be charged. For example, if you want to do photos related work, then for photoshop or any video, then use media player for it.

| What is Software |
Software is a group of different programs by which specific tasks can be performed. A computer has two parts, the first is called hardware, while the second is software. Hardware is the physical parts of a computer that we can hide that do a certain task, for which they are designed like- Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor, CPU, Printer, Projector etc.
Conversely, there is a group of software programs that determine the functions of these hardware such as word processing, operating system, presentation etc. Come, who interfaces with the hardware. If hardware is compared to computer body then software is compared to computer mind. Just as human bodies are useless without brains, in the same way there is no existence of computers without software. For example, we use keyboard, Mouse, Printer, Internet etc. Software is also required to run them all.
"Softwere is a Group of Programs"
Software is a group of instructions and programs that instruct a computer to complete a particular task. It gives the user the ability to work on the computer. Without software, computers are just a dead box of hardware.
You cannot see the software with your eyes. Nor can it be touched by hand. Because it has no physical existence. It is a virtual object that can only be understood
If your computer does not have software, then your computer will be like a dead animal. Which will remain only a box made of iron and other metals.
Think, if you did not have a browser program in your computer then you could not read this article. With this, you can get an idea of the importance of software.
Apart from this, MS Office, Photoshop, Adobe Reader, Picasa etc. are all different types of software, which make you able to do different tasks on computer.
Software infuses your computer. Makes him capable of working. And only with the help of software, you can get your mind to work on your computer.

Needs Of Software
Computer is a group of hardware and software, if the software is removed from it, then the computer will remain like a box, this box cannot work until the Operating System Software is loaded into it. This means that in order to do anything in the computer, it is necessary to have Operating System Software. Apart from operating system software, we also need some more software.
For example, if you want to type a letter or create a graphic chart or create a presentation or manage personal data related to your office, then again you need many different software for different purposes. Those are called application software.

In addition, if your computer is infected with a virus, you will need a software called Utility. In short, if you have a computer system and you want to do smooth work, then you will need software from time to time.
TYPES OF SOFTWERE
Divides computer software into three parts- System Software,
- Application Software
- Utility Software.
- System Software
System Software System Software is software that manages and controls the hardware so that the application software can complete its work. It is an essential part of the commuter system, the operating system is a clear example of this.
"System software is the system that controls and maintains the system"
If system software is stored in an integrated circuit (IC) such as Non volatile storage, it is commonly called firmware. In short, system software is a group of programs. There are many types of system software such as-
- Operating System
- SoftwareCompiler
- Interpreter
- Assembler
- Linker
- Loader
- Debugger
Operating System Software
Operating System is a System Software, which is loaded after turning on the computer. That is, it is the program required to boot the computer. Apart from booting the computer, it is required for other application software and utility software.
- Process Management
- Memory Management
- Disk and File System
- Networking
- Security Management
- Device Drivers
- Compiler
The compiler translates the source code into machine code to create an executable file. These codes are called executable file's object code. The programmer can execute this executable object file after copying it to another computer.
In other words, once the program is compiled, an independently executable file is created which does not require a compiler to execute. Each Programming language requires a Compiler.
In other words, once the program is compiled, an independently executable file is created which does not require a compiler to execute. Each Programming language requires a Compiler.
The compiler works by converting the source code into machine code, it has higher working speed and occupies more space in memory as it reads the entire program at once and if there is an error error massage Show does.
- Interpreter
An interpreter is a program that performs the task of converting programs written in High level language into Machine Language. Interpreter translates machine instruction one by one in turn. It translates all instruction of High level language program together. does not translate into machine language.
The interpreter occupies less space in memory as it checks every line of the program in turn and if there is an error in a line it immediately shows the error massage and until that mistake is rectified It doesn't let it go

Difference between Compiler and Interpreter
- Assembler
Assembler is a program that translates assembly language into machine language. Apart from this, it translates high level language into machine language. It converts mnemonic code such as ADD, NOV, SUB etc. into Binary code.
2. Application Software
Application software is a subclass of computer software used by the user to perform the desired task.
"Application software is the software that connects the user and the computer.
Application software is very useful for computer, if there is no application software in the computer, then we cannot do any work on the computer, without the application software, the computer is just a box. There are many programs under Application Software which are as follows.
- MS word
- MS Excel
- MS PowerPoint
- MS Access
- MS Outlook
- MS Paint
3. Utility Software
Utility Software is also known as Service Program. It is a type of computer software that has been specifically designed to help organize computer hardware, operating system or application software.
"Utility Software are those software which repair the computer and increase the functionality of the computer and help to make it more functional."
Various types of utility software are available such as-
- Disk Defragmenter
- Scan Disk
- Disk Cleanup
- Anti virus
- Disk Checker
- System Profilers
- Virus Scanner
- Disk Cleaner
Simple summary of Softwere:-
- Software is the part of computer that we can only see and work on.
- Software is a group of different programs by which specific tasks can be done.
- After Computer On, the software is first loaded in RAM. Is and is executed (executed) in the Central Processing Unit.
- To do anything in the computer, it is necessary to have Operating System Software.
- The computer software is divided into three parts. System Software, Application Software and Utility Software.
