Today we learned about what a CPU is and how it works.
A CPU works by receiving the information from the RAM ( INPUT ) and it goes to the ROM to find out how to do it, this method is executed in Lighting Speed though so it doesn't affect the user.
When the CPU gets the right knowledge for how to execute the command that we commanded he executes it.

We also learned that the CPU fetches the next instruction, decodes it and executes it before repeating the process. This process is called Fetch-Execute Cycle.
