Software is a set of instructions and associated documentation that tells a computer what to do or how to perform a task. Basically system software is a general purpose software which is used to operate hardware. Application software is a specific purpose software which is used for performing specific task. System software can run independently which works in the background but not application because they can't run without the presence of system software  which interacts with application software.System software are installed on the computer when the operating system is installed but application software is according to user' requirement.  Two examples of  system software are driver and compiler. For application software there are web browser and media player.

The software that I always use in my computer the application system. The application systems are  web browser, word processor and media player. i use web browser because it is easy for me to login into my email to check my mail and my facebook so that i can be able to be socialize with my friends. do do my assignments i usually use word processor because it consist of many options to write a letter or complete an assignment. for the media player, that's where I spend most of my busy and leisure time.. i love listening to songs because it gives me peace of mind. This is the application I usually use in my computer.
