Where is a program stored and executed in computers

A program is a set of instructions that tells a computer what to do. It is stored in a file on the computer's hard drive, and when the program is executed, the computer reads the instructions from the file and carries them out.

The program is executed by the computer's central processing unit (CPU). The CPU fetches the instructions from the file and decodes them. It then executes the instructions, one by one, until the program is finished.

The CPU is located on the computer's motherboard. The motherboard is the main circuit board of the computer, and it connects all of the computer's components together.
