What type of software is used to create and read documents?

  1. Spreadsheets

  2. Database Management System (DBMS)

  3. Word processing

  4. Network security

The correct answer is: Word processing

Word processing software, like Microsoft Word or Google Docs, is used to create and read documents. This type of software has features specifically for creating and editing written documents, whereas the other options do not. Spreadsheets are used for organizing and analyzing data, database management systems are used for organizing large amounts of information, and network security software is used for protecting computer networks from unauthorized access. While these types of software may have some text editing capabilities, they are not optimized for creating and reading documents.
