Computer Software
The software took 52 minutes to correctly compute the greatest divisor of two to the power of 18 . A computer programmer write the instructions using a programming language, defining how the software should operate on structured data. The program may then be interpreted, or compiled into machine code. So software patents are supposed to cover the middle area, between requirements and concrete implementation. Each instruction causes the computer to carry out an operation -- moving data, carrying out a computation, or altering the control flow of instructions. Software is a program that enables a computer to perform a specific task, as opposed to the physical components of the system . The programs used to direct the operation of a computer, as well as documentation giving instructions on how to use them. Agile development breaks requirements into consumable functions and delivers rapidly on those functions through incremental development. A feedback loop helps find and fix defects as
