Bytes locations in storage are consecutively numbered starting with 0; each number is considered the address of corresponding byte. 5. The floating-point instruction set provides for loading, adding, subtracting, comparing, multiplying, dividing, and storing as well as the sign control of short and long operands. 6. The specific meaning of any setting is significant only to the operation setting in the condition code. 7. The process of discovering, locating and correcting errors proved to be one of main difficulty, often taking considerably longer time than writing the program in the first place and using much machine time. 8. Although programming techniques have improved greatly since the early days, the process of finding and correcting errors in programs known as "debugging" still remains a most difficult and unsatisfactory operation. 9. We are reaching the limit of the human ability to write complicated programs, and the software crisis really is the result of attempting making the human beings to write them. 10. The central processing unit contains the facilities for addressing main storage, for fetching or storing information, for arithmetic and logic processing data, for sequencing instructions in the desired order, and for initiating the communication between storage and external devices. 11. It is the compiling of a program that requires great attention of the programmer. 12. Compiling a program requires great attention of a programmer.

Once the information is stored in a computer's memory, the computer can calculate, compare and copy this information. The memories are of different kinds. RAM and ROM are examples the newest ones.
RAM stands for Random Access Memory, because information can be transferred into and out of any single byte of memory. The storage cells, i.e., bits of a RAM chip require power to retain their < contents. If the power fails, the contents are lost.
ROM is firmware and stands for Read Only Memory. It is permanent memory chip for program storage. Instructions and information are stored in the ROM at the time of their manufacture and cannot be altered. All microcomputers use RAMs and ROMs, and so do personal computers".
