The CPU (Central Processing Unit) includes the arithmetic and logic unit (ALU) and the control unit. The ALU performs mathematical and logical operations, while the control unit coordinates the activities of the CPU and manages the flow of data between the CPU and other components of the computer system. The I/O unit and main memory unit are separate components of the computer system, and although they work closely with the CPU, they are not part of the CPU itself.
