Does Time Machine back up apps too?

[juicyxoprincess]

I have to send my MBP in for service and I am about to back up my computer, I was just wondering the best way to go about it so that I dont loose any of my information. I have an external hard drive and was wondering if I use Time Machine will it back up my applications and all information on my computer?
thanks in advance for any info

Yes, it'll back up everything. You will the install disc to restore.
