Application software and system software are two different types of software that are used to perform different tasks on a computer.



        Application software is software that is designed to perform specific tasks for the user. Examples of application software include word processors, spreadsheets, web browsers, media players, and video games. These types of software are used by end-users to complete specific tasks or projects, such as writing a document or creating a budget.
        System software, on the other hand, is software that is designed to manage and control the computer's hardware and basic functions. Examples of system software include the operating system, device drivers, and system utilities. These types of software are responsible for managing the computer's resources, such as memory, processing power, and storage, and for communicating with the computer's hardware.
        In simple terms, the application software is what users interact with, and the system software is what makes sure everything works smoothly behind the scenes. They both work together to make a computer useful for the user. The operating system, for example, is a system software that provides an interface for the user to interact with the computer, and also it controls the hardware and software resources of the computer. Without the system software, the application software would not be able to run.
