The main purpose of RAM (Random Access Memory) in a computer is to provide fast access to volatile memory.This memory is loaded out of the primary storage device (Hark Drive or Solid State Drive) when the...

The number system we use to write numbers is called a positional system. Each digit of the number is a multiplier of the increasing powers of the base. So for binary:
1011₂ = 1 * 2^{3 <...}

A RISC processor is designed using the Reduced Instruction Set Computing philosophy. This means it has a limited number of simple instructions. This results in high performance when fewer cycles occur, an...

Information from the sensors is sent to the microprocessor. The ADC (analogue to digital converter) converts the analogue data into digital form. The microprocessor compares this digital data with stored ...

This question is relevant to different coding languages, and it can be easily explained using Java language : for instance, we will use an integer array called FOR:for(int i=0;i<ArrayList.size();i++) t...
