5.  Software brings the machine to life :
The ingredient that enable a computer to perform a specific task is software, which
consists of instruction .
A set of instruction that drive a computer to perform specific task is c/d
program .
 This instruction tell the machine ‘s physical components what to do: without the
instruction . a computer could not do any thing at all . When a computer uses a
particular program , it is said to be running or executing that program.
although the array of available programs is vast and varied , most software fall
into two categories :
1.System software and
2.Application software

6. 1. System software :
System software is any program that control that computer’s hardware or that can be used to maintain the computer in
