Creating a block diagram with ASCII characters might not be the most visually appealing, but I'll provide a

simple representation of a computer's block diagram using text. Keep in mind that this is a simplified
representation, and actual computer architectures can be more complex.

Now, let's briefly explain each component:

1. Input Devices:
 These devices, such as keyboards and mice, allow users to input data into the computer.
2. Central Processing Unit (CPU):
 The CPU is the brain of the computer. It performs arithmetic and logic operations and controls the
overall operation of the computer.
3. Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU):
 The ALU is a component of the CPU that performs mathematical and logical operations.
4. Control Unit:
 The Control Unit manages and coordinates the activities of the other units within the CPU. It fetches
instructions from memory and directs the operations of the ALU.
5. Memory:
 Memory is used to store data and instructions that the CPU needs to operate. RAM (Random Access
Memory) is volatile and used for temporary storage, while ROM (Read-Only Memory) is non-volatile
and often contains the computer's firmware.
6. Output Devices:
 These devices, such as monitors and printers, display or produce the results of the computer's
processing
