Registers
are small
storage
areas within the CPU that can hold data or instructions being processed by the CPU at any given time.
There are two types of registers -
general purpose
registers and
special purpose
registers.
The CPU is made up of several components, including the ALU (
Arithmetic Logic Unit
), CU (
Control Unit
) and Registers.
