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.

The physical components of a computer are called "hardware". In relation, the non-physical parts of a computer are called "software".

This can be a good way for some people to remember the difference and meanings to both terms.
