Quiz Description

In these Computer software quizzes, we will be seeing a lot about software which is all the information processed by Computer systems, programs as well as data. This quiz will give you a broader view of how much studies of computer software can help the economy as software engineers develop software solutions that satisfy the wants and needs of businesses and consumers.

Computer software is simply a set of instructions that tell a computer what to do. This software comprises the entire set of programs, procedures, and routines associated with the operation and functioning of the computer. A set of instructions that directs a computer's hardware to perform a task is called a program, or a software program. Software engineers usually develop these programs, they even create many types of solutions such as desktop and web applications, mobile apps, games, robots, operating systems, network systems 

Be sure to check on all the software quizzes before leaving, this is just a smaller part of the software. And for anyone preparing for exams or tests on Computer science, welcome.
