In this article we describe a concept of “executable documentation” and a computer program implementation of the idea. This concept and program are useful tools in the introduction of new users to computer systems. In addition, the method is cheap and readily extended by expert and novice computer users for codifying the results of their own learning for their own later use or for the tutoring of others.

Computer-related anxiety and stress affects everyone who uses a computer and is aggravated by poor management, faulty system design, inadequate training, misunderstandings by users of what computers can do, and substandard documentation. Research has shown that computer users, no matter how experienced they are, can experience anxiety and stress that negatively affect their job performance. The problem is so pervasive that no single management strategy, ergonomic plan, training model, or system design can resolve the dilemma. Physical and psychological problems that afflict computer users can be reduced only by a united effort of all people involved with designing systems, training, and operating computers within organizations. This article reviews research in the field, and outlines how management, system designers, and technical communicators can help users relieve stress and anxiety when using and learning how to operate computers. When managers, designers, and technical communicators work together, factors that create computer stress and anxiety can be identified and reduced when computer systems and training are properly designed and managed.

Perangkat lunak komputer merupakan sebuah program komputer yang menjembatani pengguna komputer dan perangkat keras yang digunakannya. Dengan kata lain perangkat lunak merupakan penerjemah antara manusia sebagai orang yang memberi instruksi dan komputer sebagai pihak yang menerima instruksi. Perangkat lunak memang tidak tampak secara fisik dan tidak berwujud benda namun bisa untuk dioperasikan. Perangkat lunak secara garis besar software atau perangkat lunak dapat diklasifikasikan menjadi tiga bagian yaitu, perangkat lunak sistem operasi, perangkat lunak sistem aplikasi dan bahasa pemograman.Kata kunci : Perangkat Lunak KomputerAbstractComputer software is a computer program that bridges computer users and the hardware they use. In other words software is a translator between humans as the person who gives instructions and the computer as the party who receives instructions. The software does not appear physically and is not tangible but can be operated. Software outline software or software can be classified into three parts, namely, operating system software, application system software and programming languages.

Abstrak Perangkat lunak komputer (software) atau disebut juga dengan peranti lunak adalah sebuah program komputer yang menjadi jembatan penghubung antara pengguna komputer (user) dengan komputer. Dengan kata lain, perangkat lunak merupakan penerjemah antara user sebagai pemberi intruksi dan komputer sebagai pihak yang menerima intruksi. Software memiliki sifat bertolak belakang dengan hardware. Jika fisik hardware dapat disentuh, lain halnya dengan software, software tidak dapat disentuh dengan indra peraba secara fisik. Namun, software sangat penting dalam pengoprasian komputer. Karna tanpa software komputer hanya mesin yang tidak dapat dioperasikan dengan intruksi user. Sistem software dibuat dengan menggunakan bahasa pemrograman yang ditulis oleh programmer sehingga menjadi kode yang dapat dikenali perangkat keras.Kata kunci : Perangkat lunak komputer, software, programAbstractComputer software (software) is a computer program that serves as a bridge between computer users (users) and computers. In other words, software is a translator between the user as the giver of instructions and the computer as the party who receives the instructions. Software has the opposite properties to hardware. If physical hardware can be touched, another case with software, software cannot be touched with the physical sense of touch. However, software is very important in operating the computer. Because without computer software only machines that cannot be operated with user instructions. The software system is created using a programming language written by the programmer so that it becomes code that can be recognized by the hardware.Keywords: Computer software, software, program
