In computer science, RAM stands for Random Access Memory. It is a type of computer memory that is used to store data that is being actively used by the computer's operating system, programs, and applications. RAM is a temporary storage location that allows for quick and efficient data access and retrieval. It helps the computer to process data faster by providing access to frequently accessed instructions and data. RAM is volatile memory, meaning its contents are lost when the computer is powered off or restarted.
