Computers are amazing devices and play a significant role in nearly everything that we do. While seemingly complex, the basic architecture of a computer is straight-forward. In this experience, we'll take a look at memory, the central processing unit, the arithmetic logic unit, data and address buses, and examine how a computer processes instructions. | |||
