Programmable ROM (ROM) is a non-volatile, read-only memory used for storing essential system software and
firmware. It provides the initial set of instructions for booting up a computer or device, while RAM is volatile
and temporary. ROM is primarily used for storing essential system software and firmware, while RAM is used
for actively running programs and temporarily storing data for immediate access. RAM offers faster access
times and is suitable for dynamic processes. ROM comes in various types, such as PROM (Programmable
ROM), EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM), and EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM).
RAM is typically larger in size but more expensive due to its faster access times and volatility.
