A processor is a central processing unit (CPU) that executes instructions and handles data for a computer. It is the brain of the computer and is responsible for receiving and interpreting instructions from the software, carrying out those instructions, and sending the results back to the software. The processor is sometimes referred to as the “brain” of the computer because it is responsible for the majority of the computer’s processing power.
