Professor: What is an interface?
Alec: An interface is interconnection between hardware, software, and

and software interfaces?
Alec: Yes, I do. There are also interfaces between people and computers.
They are terminal screens and keyboards.
Professor: And what are hardware interfaces?
Alec: They are physical channels, cables, or wires. They connect and
exchange electronic signals between the CPU and peripherals or between any
two units.
Professor: And what about software interfaces? Can you give any example?
Alec: Software interfaces are application programs, Data Base Management

Professor: And what are they?
Alec: They are specific messages established between programs.
Professor: Good. I like your answer. Your mark is a five.
Alec: Thank you, Professor. Good-bye.
