Answer is CPU cache

Explanation: A CPU cache is a special high-speed memory which is smaller and faster, and which helps to store copies of data from main memory location which are often used. It is actually located quite close to the processing core, and is used by the CPU of a computer to save time and energy in accessing data from the main memory.

The way it works is if the processor is either trying to read from or write to a particular location in the main memory, it checks to see if the data from the location is already in a cache, if it is, then it alternatively read from or write to the cache; which faster, instead of the main memory.

Please let me know if this helps.

Answer:

Cache memory in CPU.

The computer system is an electronic device comprising of a hardware unit and a software interface unit or platform. The software unit provides the user with the interface to operate the system, while the hardware is the physical parts of the system.

The cache memory is an built-in memory in the CPU that can retrieve data for computing. It boost the speed of CPU operation by providing the retrieved data speedily to the CPU.

Write a program to solve the selection problem. Let k = N/2. Draw a table showing the running time of your program for various v
Brums [2.3K]
So here is the code in Python:

n = 0.00 #this is a float because there are some numbers that are decimals.

while n < 20: #n which is 0.00 and while it is lower than 20 if runs the code below
n = n + 1 #it will add 1 to n everything it runs the code.
k = n / 2 #it will divide whatever n is everytime by 2
print(str(n) + '/2: ') # it's printing the number it's on
print(k) # prints the answer for the n.

You can change n to add by any, make n any num instead of 0.00 and you can change the while condition from n < 20 to any other logical statement. If you want to get creative you can take 2 inputs for numbers and make one of them the starting number and other one is the ending number. Also make sure to make n a number lower than you starting point because if you set n as your starting point then it will skip it.
