What is software
▪ Software is a collection of programs to acquire inputs and
generates desired output after execution in terms of functions
and performance as determined by users.
Documentation Programs
• Intangible
• Software is developed using engineering approach
• Reliability
• Portability (easy to alter/modify)
• Non-perishable (may obsolete, but doesn’t wear out)
• Operational in specific environment, end user, etc.
• Maintainability
• Reusability
