Is the sims a hardware or software?

The Sims is a game and thus it is a program. That makes it software. It is not a computer part.The key thing to keep in mind is that hardware is the physical parts of the computer, while software is invisible. If you want to be technical, a CD or DVD is really hardware. The information that is stored on it is the software. Just like a cassette tape, LP, or 8-track is not music, but merely the container for the music, a diskette, CD, DVD, or memory stick is not a program, but merely a container for programs.Now if you mean a SIMM (single inline memory module), that is hardware.
