Computer software or just " software ", is a collection of computer programs and related data that provides the instructions for telling a computer what to do and how to do it.

Computer programming in general is the process of writing, testing, debugging, and maintaining the source code and documentation of computer programs.

Computer software, or just software, is a collection of computer programs and related data that provides the instructions for telling a computer what to do and how to do it.

Computer programming ( often shortened to programming or coding ) is the process of designing, writing, testing, debugging, and maintaining the source code of computer programs.

Computer programs may be categorized along functional lines: system software and application software.

Computer operating systems as far back as early Unix have included interactive calculator programs such as dc and hoc, and calculator functions are included in almost all PDA-type devices ( save a few dedicated address book and dictionary devices ).

Computer programs store information similarly, with a separate data section and code section.

Computer programs typically comprise several parts or modules ; all these parts / modules need not be contained within a single object file, and in such case refer to each other by means of symbols.

The largest undergraduate degree programs were in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (), Computer Science and Engineering (), Mechanical Engineering (), Physics (), and Mathematics ().

Computer programmers write, test, debug, and maintain the detailed instructions, called computer programs, that computers must follow to perform their functions.

The idea of self-reproducing programs first appeared in Paul Bratley and Jean Millo's article " Computer Recreations: Self-Reproducing Automata " in 1972.

The PEO does not recognize any online or distance education however ; and does not consider Computer Science programs to be equivalent to software engineering programs despite the tremendous overlap between the two.

Computer programs then use the overlapping ends of different reads to assemble them into a continuous sequence.

* Computer security: Many computer security problems are caused by self-reproducing computer programs that infect computers — computer worms and computer viruses.

Computer programs have been created to more effectively model and predict starship combat.

Co-op programs have been established in Business Administration, Computer Science, Physics, and Dietetics.

The few exceptions were climatological and meteorological programs until the NSF responded to the Japanese Fifth Generation Computer Systems project and created their supercomputer centers.

Computer programs exist that let one resize, convert, watermark, or otherwise edit image files.

* CompTIA, also known as the Association of Better Computer Dealers

In the late 1960s the D2000, D4000 range was produced ( also known as the TC500 — Terminal Computer 500 ) which had a golf ball printer and a 1K ( 80 bit ) disk memory.

Computer security is a branch of computer technology known as information security as applied to computers and computer networks.

In the Star Trek episode " The Ultimate Computer ", Dr. McCoy refers to an alcoholic drink known as the " Finagle's Folly ," apparently a reference to " Finagle's Law.

MARK-IV is now known as VISION: BUILDER and is offered by Computer Associates.

The IBM Personal Computer, commonly known as the IBM PC, is the original version and progenitor of the IBM PC compatible hardware platform.

In 1959 he and John McCarthy founded what is now known as the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

This model was made by Foxconn in 2008, and follows the ATX layout ( known as the " Computer form factor | form factor ") usually employed for desktop computers.

On January 24, 1984, Apple Computer Inc. ( now Apple Inc .) introduced the Macintosh personal computer, with the Macintosh 128K model, which came bundled with what was later renamed the Mac OS, but then known simply as the System Software.

MIPS Technologies, Inc. (), formerly MIPS Computer Systems, Inc., is a semiconductor design company that is most widely known for developing the MIPS architecture and a series of RISC CPU chips.

Only three PDP-1 computers are still known to exist, and all three are in the collection of the Computer History Museum ( CHM ).

Kelly-Bootle is well known in the computer community for his books The Devil's DP Dictionary and its second edition, The Computer Contradictionary.

The earliest known citation on the Internet is from 1986 on Usenet in the signature of a poster from Convex Computer Corporation as "' I think there is a world market for about five computers ' — Remark attributed to Thomas J. Watson ( Chairman of the Board of International Business Machines ), 1943 ".

Herwart Holland-Moritz, known as Wau Holland, ( 20 December 1951-29 July 2001 ) cofounded the Chaos Computer Club ( CCC ) in 1981, one of the world's oldest hacking clubs.

Another machine, a PDP-7 ( S # 47 ) is known to be in the collection of Max Burnet near Sydney, Australia, and a fourth PDP-7 machine ( S # 33 ) is in storage at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.

The best known hardware ( due to its low price and broad distribution ) was the TRS-80 Color Computer ( CoCo ) and its clones such as the British Dragon series.

The buyer was computer gaming entrepreneur and astronaut's son Richard Garriott ( also known as Lord British ), who stated in a 2001 interview with Computer Games Magazine's Cindy Yans that:

Subsequently, Prevel engaged the assistance of Top Star Computer Services, Inc. ( also known as TSCS ), a New Jersey company that provided quality assurance services to game developers.

Originally known as PCMCIA Card, short for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association, the PC Card standard as well as its successors were defined and developed by the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association ( PCMCIA ), which itself was created by a number of computer industry companies in 1986 by Jacob D. Holm.

Computer chess programs are well known for doing this.

Originally known as the 1201, the chip was commissioned by Computer Terminal Corporation ( CTC ) to implement an instruction set of their design for their Datapoint 2200 programmable terminal.
