Whois & Analysis for alternative.me

Computer software, or simply software, is that part of a computer system that consists of data or computer instructions, in contrast to the physical hardware from which the system is built.

In computer science and software engineering, computer software is all information processed by computer systems, programs and data.

Computer software includes computer programs, libraries and related non-executable data, such as online documentation or digital media.

Computer hardware and software require each other and neither can be realistically used on its own.

In computing, source code is any collection of computer instructions, possibly with comments, written using a human-readable programming language, usually as ordinary text.

The source code of a program is specially designed to facilitate the work of computer programmers, who specify the actions to be performed by a computer mostly by writing source code.

The source code is often transformed by an assembler or compiler into binary machine code understood by the computer.

The machine code might then be stored for execution at a later time.

Alternatively, source code may be interpreted and thus immediately executed.
