What Is Software?

Software, in its most general sense, is a set of instructions or programs instructing a computer to do specific tasks. Software is a generic term used to describe computer programs that run on PCs, mobile phones, tablets, or other smart devices. Software is often used to describe all the functional aspects of a computer that does not refer to its physical components (hardware). Scripts, applications, programs and a set of instructions are all terms often used to describe software. Everything that “runs” on a computer, from an operating system to a diagnostic tool, video game, or app can be defined as software.
