RAM - The Working Memory of a Computer
RAM, or Random Access Memory, is an essential part of a computer that functions as its working memory. Just like our brains remember things while we're busy, RAM allows the computer to keep things while performing tasks. In the past, computers had limited RAM, like having a small desk with limited space. Nowadays, computers have much more RAM, at least 8GB, which is like having a big desk with lots of space. This increased RAM helps modern computers work faster and more efficiently.
