What are applications?

A type of computer language
A type of hardware
A type of computer memory
Programs designed to perform specific tasks

The correct answer is: Programs designed to perform specific tasks

Applications, also known as "apps", are programs that are designed to perform specific tasks or functions for the user. They are not a type of computer language, but rather are written in a particular programming language. They are also not a type of hardware, as they are installed on hardware such as computers or smartphones. Applications do not refer to computer memory, but rather they use computer memory to run and perform their designated tasks.
