Memory is a complex function of the brain. There are different types of memory.
Short - term memory, also known as working memory, allows us to hold a small amount of information for a short period. For example, when we look up a phone number and remember it long enough to dial, that's short - term memory.
Long - term memory is where we store information for a longer time, sometimes for a lifetime. This includes memories of events, facts, and skills. For example, we remember how to ride a bike or the name of our first school.
