Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvrxE_ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ComputerProgramTypeByFunction</a> is a collection of programs (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwJxiRJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ComputerProgram_CW</a>) whose instances all serve a similar function and can be used for a similar purpose. This purpose might be very specific (see e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rveW_XZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AutoLoanCalculatorProgram</a>) or more general (see e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwGM3oZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FinancialProgram</a>).
