What is the function of SIM card in telephone?

The function of a SIM card is relatively simple. It's not a super advanced item that controls your phone, rather, it is basically nothing more than a storage device for information useable by yourself and your cellular carrier. It has limited memory to save this information. And this 'storage device' is also the reason you can use someone elses phone, put your SIM card into it and have all of your phone numbers and information about your account on their phone. This is of course unless their cellular provider has SIM-locked their phones. Anyways, long story short SIM-Card = storage device.
