Line 254: '''Oppose''' - Software, such as a [[Library (computing)\|library]] can be a subset of a computer program. Computer program is a specific software topic. ~[[User:Kvng\|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng\|talk]]) 14:51, 9 June 2025 (UTC) :# I don't see library as a subset of computer program. Also, the software article doesn't say this. The library article says, "Commonly, a library consists of executable code such as compiled functions and classes, or a library can be a collection of source code." What am I missing? :# Regarding "Computer program is a specific software topic.": Are you saying software is a general topic of which computer program is a special case? Again, the software article doesn't say this. :# What information is there in the software article that differentiates it from computer program? Design documents and specifications? Um. A colleague has never said to me, "Please hand me your documents software." Or "Please hand me your specification software." If I were to receive a request to hand over my software, then I would deliver computer programs. *:[[User:Timhowardriley\|Timhowardriley]] ([[User talk:Timhowardriley\|talk]]) 19:57, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
