  Difference Between CISC & RISC
  
  OK. I will do the difference between CISC & RISC
  
  CISC
  
  1) It stands for Complex Instruction Set Computer.
  2) It has relatively more instruction types and addressing modes.
  3) It's format is not fixed and can be easily decoded.
  4) It's execution is slow as compared to RISC.
  5) Mainly used in normal PC’s, Workstations and servers
  6) Pipelining implementation is not easy
  7) Software developers no need to write more lines for the same tasks
  8) Used by Intel and AMD processors
  
  RISC
  
  1) It stands for Reduced Instruction Set Computer
  2) It has fewer instruction types and modes.
  3) It has fixed instruction format.
  4) It has fast and single cycle instruction execution.
  5) Mainly used for real time applications.
  6) Pipelining can be implemented easily.
  7) It puts a greater burden on the software. Software developers need to write more lines for the same tasks.
  8) Used by Apple.
