Full meaning of RAM & ROM?

 

RAM – Random Access Memory

ROM – Read Only Memory

 

RAM stands for Random Access Memory, which is a type of computer memory that allows data to be read or written in almost the same amount of time regardless of the physical location of data inside the memory. It’s volatile memory, meaning it loses its data when the power is turned off.

 

ROM stands for Read-Only Memory, a type of memory that stores data permanently and cannot be easily modified or overwritten. It retains its data even when the power is turned off and is commonly used to store firmware or essential system instructions that the computer needs to boot up.
