Software does not need a computer to exist OR to be run.
for(i=0; i< 10; i++){
print i;
}
I can run that loop in my mind quite easily, though it sincerely it is rather
dull.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Please read more carefully, or are you actually saying there is a computer (or
some machine) IN the software?
Granted that a computer is a programmable machine, but she was talking about
what the software *itself* is, which (usually) goes into a machine, not the
other way around.
I've got software on tape (of more than one kind), on floppy disks, on hard
disks, even on "thumb" drives. I also have software in books and on
printouts. I'd love for you to show me where imbedded in any of that software is
a machine.
So what is this "incorrect way?" I'm far from clear about what you
mean.

If you can't, then you are deliberately conflating the physical with the
abstract!
