This definition clearly states that, the software is not just a collection of programs, but includes all associated documentation and data.<br /><br /><h4>Definitions of Software Engineering:</h4>Software engineering is the field of computer science that deals with the construction of large, complex, industrial strength (or) quality software systems. The below are the some of the best definition for software engineering.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Definition-1: </span>Software engineering is the systematic approach to the development and maintenance of the software.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Definition-2: </span>Software engineering is the application of science and mathematics by which capabilities of computer equipment are made useful to man via computer programs, procedures and associated documentation.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Definition-3:</span> The establishment and use of engineering principles in order to obtain the software that economical, reliable and works efficiently on real machines.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7677334048862263288-3661211247475134941?l=software-engineering-notes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>P.K.ARUNnoreply@blogger.com0
