They rely heavily on secondary

memory for storing embedded software.

They use embedded software stored in ROM and generally do not require secondary memory.

They prioritize external storage devices for flexibility.

They avoid using ROM to ensure

faster processing speeds.

They are written in binary.

They use assembly language.

They have a more human-like vocabulary and syntax.

They focus on constraint-based programming.

To generate random output signals

To detect physical phenomena like temperature,

pressure, light, and motion

To store data for future use, and also replace

human intervention entirely
