    Abstract: A method of programming a nonvolatile memory device comprises applying a program voltage to a selected wordline to program selected memory cells, and performing a verify operation by applying a verify voltage to the selected wordline to determine the programming status of the selected memory cells. The verify operation applies the verify voltage to the selected wordline at least two different times to divide the selected memory cells into at least three regions corresponding to different threshold voltage ranges.

    Abstract: A memory system includes a flash memory and a memory controller configured to control the flash memory. The memory controller determines whether program data provided from a host are all stored in the flash memory during a program operation. When the determination result is that the program data are all stored in the flash memory, the memory controller controls the flash memory to execute a dummy program operation for the next wordline of a final wordline in which the program data are stored.
