what's in a software package
The main part o( a software package
consists of the computer program,
which is contained on a disk, cartridge
or tape. The package usually also
includes printed instructions that tell
you such things as what the program
does, how to load and run it, how to
enter information, and what the pro
gram output looks like.
The amount of instructions supplied
with the software package usually
depends on how many things the pro
gram can do, and the kind of things it
can do. These instructions can be less
than a page long, or they can take up a
complete manual.
