Computer memory
Computer memory refers to the storage space in a computer where we can temporarily or permanently store data and instructions. There are two categories: primary memory and secondary memory.
Why a computer needs primary memory?
A computer needs primary memory because it allows it to access and process the data and instructions it needs quickly.
The computer's operating system uses primary storage to manage memory allocation and determine which stores data and instructions in primary memory and which should move to secondary memory.
It is also sufficient for storing the data and instructions that the computer is currently using and enables programs to run efficiently.
