Computer software such as Microsoft Word is equipped with spelling check to make things easier for writers to see their errors in spellings and grammar. With this writers will have more time thinking of better content rather than to keep checking their work for errors. Although there can be errors sometimes with this because if the word is spelled correctly but is in a wrong context the errors would not be found. Although the program is not perfect it is still very useful and helps a lot of writers' in their writing.
