the main memory is the central storage unit of the computer system.
it is relatively large and fast memory used 2 store the programs and data during the computer operation.main memory communicates directly with the CPU.
main memory includes RAM and ROMs.
devices that provide backup storage are known as auxillary memory.
auxillary memory are relatively slow in comparision to the main memory.
auxillary memory includes flash memory,magntic disks and floppys.

Modular coding enforces logical boundaries between the separate components of a system and thus improves the maintainability of the system. Typically, a modular program consists of a primary module (such as an EXE file) and many auxiliary modules (such as DLL files). Auxiliary modules can often be shared amongst many primary modules, thus reducing memory consumption. A real-world example of modular coding would be a multi-language program, where the language resources are provided by separate auxiliary modules. In this way the user selects their chosen language and the appropriate module(s) for that language are loaded into memory.
primary memory is built in memory on a computer it is the main type of memory.... eg RAM ROM and HDD
Memory refers to the physical devices used to store programs (sequences of instructions) or data (e.g. program state information) on a temporary or permanent basis for use in a computer or other digital electronic device. Computer Memory is two types as Primary Memory and Secondary Memory at the base of uses. The term primary memory is used for the information in physical systems which function at high-speed (i.e. RAM), as a distinction from secondary memory, which are physical devices for program and data storage which are slow to access but offer higher memory capacity. When data of Primary Memory stored on secondary memory is called "virtual memory".Primary MemoryThe term "memory" is often (but not always) associated with addressable semiconductor memory, i.e. integrated circuits consisting of silicon-based transistors and used as primary memory. Primary storage (or main memory or internal memory), often referred to simply as memory, is the only one directly accessible to the CPU. The CPU continuously reads instructions stored there and executes them as required. Any data actively operated on is also stored there in uniform manner. RAM used for primary storage is also volatile, i.e. they lose the information when not powered). Cash Memory is also a super fast then RAM and it working for only processor.There are two main types of semiconductor memory: volatile and non-volatile.Examples of non-volatile memory are flash memory (sometimes used as secondary, sometimes primary computer memory) and ROM/PROM/EPROM/EEPROM memory (used for firmware such as boot programs). Examples of volatile memory are primary memory (typically dynamic RAM, DRAM), and fast CPU cache memory (typically static RAM, SRAM, which is fast but energy-consuming and offer lower memory capacity per area unit than DRAM).Secondary MemoryThe term "storage" is often (but not always) used in separate computers of traditional secondary memory such as tape, magnetic disks and optical discs (CD-ROM and DVD-ROM). Secondary storage (also known as external memory or auxiliary storage), differs from primary storage in that it is not directly accessible by the CPU. The computer usually uses its input/output channels to access secondary storage and transfers the desired data using intermediate area in primary storage. Secondary storage does not lose the data when the device is powered down-it is non-volatile. Hard disk, CD and DVD drives are usually used as secondary storage. Some other examples of secondary storage technologies are: flash memory (e.g. USB flash drives or keys), floppy disks, magnetic tape, paper tape, punched cards, standalone RAM disks, and Iomega Zip drives.
Internal Media: Internal media means memory inside the computer like the hard drive and RAM. External Media: External media means removable media like CDs, DVDs and flash drives, which are outside the computer.
The major difference between main memory and auxiliary memory is that main memory is directly accessed by CPU but the auxiliary memory is not accessed by the CPU directly.For this the data is first transferred to main memory from auxiliary memory and then from main memory the data is transferred to the CPU for further processing.

RAM
Computer memory is categorized into primary and secondary memory. While primary memory is the main memory of the computer which is used to store data or information temporarily, whereas secondary memory refers to external storage devices that are used to store data or information permanently.
The transfer of pages of data between a computer's main memory and an auxiliary memory.
Cache memory is smaller and quicker, primary memory larger and slower.
secondary memory is actually the permanent memory/the backing storage of the computer. it is of two types:sequential accessdirect accessauxiliary memory is the computer's internal/temporary memory. it is also of two types:random access memory (RAM)read only memory (ROM)the difference between secondary memory and auxiliary memory is that:-both are same i.e both performs the same operationsthanks.

Cache
secondary memory
William James
Primary memory, also known as main memory, refers to the computer's directly accessible memory that includes RAM and cache memory. It is volatile and stores data that is actively used by the computer. Secondary memory, on the other hand, is non-volatile memory that includes storage devices like hard drives and SSDs. Data stored in secondary memory is retained even when the computer is turned off.
