Programs.
This word means: a number of instructions that are
processed more or less automatically by the computer.
Programs are often used as files. Not all files
however are programs, as for instance datafiles,
addressfiles, textfiles.
In DOS, when we talk about programs, we mean all those
files that have an EXE or COM extension.
Basically, also Batch files ( that is, files with a
BAT extension) are programs, because they also contain
a number of instructions for the computer.
