Characteristics of RAM and ROM

RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer storage that temporarily holds data and applications while the CPU processes them.
RAM is volatile, meaning its contents are lost when the power is turned off.
ROM (Read-Only Memory) is a type of non-volatile memory that permanently stores data and cannot be changed or written by a user.
The main difference between RAM and ROM is that RAM is volatile and ROM is non-volatile, and RAM's contents can be changed, whereas ROM's contents are permanent.
