SOFTWARE is a collection of some programmes which is designed for specific task to be done.while the programme is a set of instruction written in a comp understood language to do a specific work. Ex: Calci is a software and the instructions written to add two numbers is a programme.but calci has many functions for all of which has different programmes written..
Software is both a program and a code. A computer consists of hardware and software. The hardware is the stuff you can physically touch. The software is the programs and data, both of which must be digitally encoded.
A function is a subroutine or procedure that performs one or more tasks within a computer program. Functions typically perform just one task and are relatively simple, often just one or two lines of code, but some may be highly complex. Functions may call other functions, thus complex functions can be broken down into a series of very simple function calls. With well-named functions, code becomes self-documenting, minimising the need for comments that would otherwise add no value to the code and would only serve to distract the reader. Functions also help when you have repeated sections of code that may be called from a variety of other functions, thus reducing code duplication and reducing the maintenance cost; changing one function is much easier than changing all instances of the same code throughout a program.
A program is a collection of one or more functions, subroutines or procedures, the combination of which is intended to solve a particular problem. Every program has at least one function, the main function, which serves as the entry point for the application. The main function typically handles command-line input (the program's arguments) and co-ordinates calls to other functions to perform the actual processing based upon those arguments. When the main function ends, the program ends. Programs are often called executables because they contain machine code instructions that will execute as soon as the program is loaded into memory by the program loader. Programs also contain data utilised by those instructions but can also pull data from other sources. Programs can also load and execute other programs.
Function libraries are a special type of program that contain functions that can be called from other programs. These have a main function as well and can execute instructions when loaded but generally they simply remain in memory so that other programs can make use of their functions. The operating system keeps track of which programs are using which libraries so that when all programs using a particular library have terminated, the library can be unloaded from memory automatically.
Software is the antonym of hardware. The hardware is the physical component while the software is the machine-readable code utilised by the hardware. In computing, you cannot realistically have one without the other. The code includes machine instructions as well as data utilised by those instructions. A computer program is software. A function library is software. A data file is software. Basically, anything that cannot be physically touched is software. The term firmware applies to software that is semi-permanently encoded into the hardware itself. Firmware is typically used to provide the basic operational code that allows a system to enumerate and initialise devices prior to loading more general purpose software, which includes the operating system itself.
A computer is the hardware of your system; the stuff you can actually touch and feel. Computer programs, aka "Software", is just that - you cannot touch it. The hardware runs the software. In other words, the computer program needs the computer, but not the other way around.
Program is a step by step instructions which are given by programmer to the computer to follow.
Example :- For making simple calculator the programmer specifies the instructions in some programming language for doing the arithematic operations and to take input from user and to display the answer.
This program makes a software of calculator.
Different programs are combined to make a software.
Software is that thing which you cannot touch it but you can only see it on computer or some other electronics devices.
Software programs cover all types of program including applications. Application programs are best thought of as being user-level programs. This differentiates them from the system-level programs and low-level utilities such as operating system kernels, device drivers, subsystem programs and so on.
Program is a set of instruction of a computer to perform.
Software is the various kind of program that is used to operate computer smoothly.
A program is a part of a software. A program consist of some line of codes . A software is one that consists a set of programs.
It is both. Programs and data are all encoded in binary, thus they are software.
the program contains the which are coding like as our header file ,void main,library function etc.
A software process model is an abstract description of a piece of software. The software itself is an actual program (or set of programs) which can run on your computer.
Writing software is a part of developing software. The actual process of writing code can be called "writing software." "Developing software" includes includes the entire process of turning an idea into a program: everything from requirements and specifications to writing software.
a sprite is a computer program that moves.
Data is the information that a program will act upon. For example, your data might be all of your financial records for the past year, and the program would be some piece of tax software. The program will act upon your data so that the appropriate numbers are placed in the appropriate fields on your tax return.
there is no such thing is a software system and system software is operational program
nothing, they are different names for the same thing (computer program is the older term, going back to ENIAC in 1945 and probably some earlier electromechanical computers like the Harvard Mark I).
Program is a set of instruction of a computer to perform. Software is the various kind of program that is used to operate computer smoothly.
There are fundamental similarities and difference between computational programming and packages. A computer program are the set of instructions behind a specific application or software. A package is set of software programs.

Lines of code is a software used to measure the amount of code in a software program. It estimates the amount of exertion that is needed to develop a program. Function point analysis is used to measure software size by computing its performance supplied to the use. It does so by breaking down the system into smaller elements so they can be better evaluated and are easier to understand.
From what I understand, agent function is a program that maps the percepts to action and update the internal state. an agent program actually implements the agent function
A program is an application or an equivalent interface whereas a process is the underlying function or functions of a program
the program contains the which are coding like as our header file ,void main,library function etc.
Software is a by-product of a project and a project uses software as a tool. Analyze their relationship and you will get the difference between the two.
basic = for people who don't know much about the program or how it works advanced = for those that do...
Nothing. They are just two different names for one thing.
