The difference between software and hardware (preface)
Hardware is something you can see and touch, such as the keyboard you use for typing, the monitor for you to view the content, the large chassis of the desktop computer and the various parts inside, including your mobile phone, all belong to hardware category.
There may be some small differences in these things, but they will always make you recognize them. For example, if you want to change a mobile phone, but the style of the mobile phone and the mobile phone are different, but you will not think that it is a mobile phone because of the slight difference in the style.
The same is true for computer hardware. This group of articles will help you understand some basic hardware, so as to avoid incorrect installation and maintenance operations caused by unfamiliar hardware in the future.
Software is something you cannot see or touch. For example, the computer system you are using and the photo album you use to view pictures on your mobile phone are all software.
You may think that you can see the photo album on your mobile phone, and you can also operate and view pictures. You can see and touch it. Why is it software?
First of all, seeing and not seeing refers to what you can actually see. The phone photo album you can see is actually the phone screen, not the photo album itself. To put it bluntly, all you see is that screen. As for touching it? After all, what you touch is still a screen. The software of the photo album is only displayed through the hardware of the screen. If there is no screen, do you think you can still see the software of the "photo album"?
This group of articles hopes to let more people know the hardware composition of the computer, so that you don’t know how to operate when others help you remotely, that’s enough.
