What is a computer program?

        A computer program is a set of  instructions that give specific tasks for the computer to preform. A computer puts in the program's instructions into a central proicessor. The program has an executable form that the computer can use to execute the instructions. Types of programs found on a computer include: Microsoft Word, Photoshop, Adobe, etc. They are designed to help with different functions; however, you have to input exact information for the program or else it will not understand your directions and will not preform them or will preform an incorrect operation.
