The hardware
Hardware
The physical parts of a computer are all called hardware. That is opposed to ideas and invisible code called software that are encoded on a physical medium. Even a diskette or CD is technically considered hardware, while the data which is stored on it is software.
Hardware. Hardware(Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, etc.) are the physical components, software are the applications that run on the computer (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.)
No. Physical parts of a computer are called Hardware.They are hard and you can touch them.There are a lot of things that are called software though, like word processing, bugeting, presentation, photo editing, 3D rendering, and animation programes. Even video games are software.Software is instructions for the computer, held as a binary code within the machine. You cannot see it or touch it, you only see it's effects. This is why it is called 'soft'. It forms an important part of a computer because it cannot function without it and is 'wares' in as much as you can buy, sell and trade it, as if it were physical.

External devices which are attached to the computer are called "peripherals."
``hard ware``
The physical components of a computer are called "hardware". In relation, the non-physical parts of a computer are called "software". It can be thought of in a way that "hard" means it is tangible (you can touch it), while "soft" means it is intangible (you cannot touch it). This can be a good way for some people to remember the difference and meanings to both terms.
Actually, there are computer viruses that are designed to shut down important parts of your computer hardware than can lead to damage to many physical parts of your computer.
