Quizplus · Accepted Answer

General purpose software can be used for a variety of tasks, while function-specific software is designed for a specific purpose or industry. This is a more helpful categorization than the others provided. COTS and POTS refer to off-the-shelf software, which can be commercial or custom-made. First generation and second generation software have to do with the history of computer programming languages and are not relevant to modern software categorization.
