    Hardware refers to the physical components that make up a computer system such as the
    monitor, keyboard, mouse, motherboard and hard drive. It is the tangible, visible parts that
    can be touched and seen. While software on the other hand, refers to the intangible parts
    of a computer system. It refers to the program, applications and operating system that run
    on the hardware. It is the set of instructions that tell the computer what to do and how to
    do it.
