In simple, we can say that hardware means all physical components of a computer and software is a set of certain instruction, rules on the basis of which other components work.

Software instructs a computer what to do. There are different types of programming languages, which make computing possible. There are three different types of computer software: system software, programming software and application software.

System software consists of programs that controls, integrates and looks after the hardware components of a computer system. It mainly consists of operating systems (OS), database management systems (DBMS), communications control programs, and programming language translator.

Programming software helps a user to write computer programs and other programming software languages in a proper way. The Application software will take care of different tasks other than just running the computer system.

Random access memory (RAM) is the computer memory in which computer software is loaded. There are different types of software available in the market. For e.g. Antispyware Software protect your computer data from virus. The software consistency mulls over the faults, mistakes and breakdown that are related with the formation and operation of computer software.
