Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Every computer processor has the same instruction set
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The instruction sets for each processor type are completely different one from the other. They differ in the sizes of instructions, the kind of operations they allow, the type of operands they operate on, and the types of results they provide.

Detailed explanation-2: -An instruction set (used in what is called ISA, or Instruction Set Architecture) is code that the computer processor (CPU) can understand. The language is 1s and 0s, or machine language. It contains instructions or tasks that control the movement of bits and bytes within the processor.

Detailed explanation-3: -The instruction set determines how the hardware is implemented. It is effectively the essential set of operations that the processor is able to perform “in hardware."

Detailed explanation-4: -CPUs can only carry out one instruction at a time. It might seem like CPUs can perform many instructions simultaneously, since it is possible for you to do homework, read instant messages and listen to music at the same time.
