Differentiate between RAM and ROM?

Answer Posted / sreekanth

Ram stands for Random Access Memory. It allows data to both
be written and accessed on the chip in any order placed on
it.

ROM stands for Read Only Memory. As the name suggests, you
can only get data from it (read). You normally can't write
to it. A PC's bios is a good example
