Google, Bing, etc. are types of search engines. The question was "What is a search engine?"---Google defines "search engine" as "a program that searches for and identifies items in a database that correspond to keywords or characters specified by the user, used especially for finding particular sites on the World Wide Web." However, Google also specifies the definition of "web search engine" as "a software system that is designed to search for information on the World Wide Web. The search results are generally presented in a line of results often referred to as search engine results pages" I hope that this provides the real answer you were seeking, meenakashi850
