What is RAM (Random-Access Memory)?

RAM (Random-Access Memory) definition

RAM or Random Access Memory is the memory where currently running software resides. RAM is used by operating system and processor to work on a task. The more RAM a device has, better performance it offers. More RAM means the device can run high end software and applications or performs complex tasks.
