Answer:

API (Application Programming Interface)

Step-by-step explanation:

API in its simplest terms is just like a middle man that allows your computer run programs. Every computer has an operating system, some common operating systems include Windows, Linux, Mac and others. So when a program starts running on a computer, the computer's operating system understands or knows what to do through the API of the running program
