What is a program?

An ordered list of events to take place or procedures to be followed; a schedule. A collection of instructions that tell the computer to do specific activity. A program is generally known as "software". The terms software, application, program and instruction are synonymous in the sense that they all tell the computer to do some specific activity. A program is written in a programming language, such as C or C++. The program contains machine instructions, buffers, constants and counters.
