Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
CISC aims to improve processing time by increasing the number of instructions understood by the CPU in the instruction set.
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The fundamental goal of CISC is that a single instruction will handle all evaluating, loading, and storing operations, similar to how a multiplication command will handle evaluating, loading, and storing data, which is why it’s complicated.

Detailed explanation-2: -The CISC processor provides direct manipulation of operands that are in memory. The task of a compiler is to generate a sequence of machine instructions for each high-level language statement. The task is simplified if there are machine instructions that implement the statements directly.

Detailed explanation-3: -Why do you need it? The design philosophy of CISC processors is to build the complexity into the CPU, so the computing process would not be so taxing on the software and other hardware components.
