Imagine a busy road with multiple lanes, each lane can handle a certain number of cars. This road handling cars is like CPU handling tasks and operations in computer i.e., Road = CPU.
For example,
Each core can work on a different task, making the computer faster and more efficient.
When computers need to execute multiple tasks simultaneously but have limited cores, then CPU uses “context switching”.
Imagine a receptionist at a busy office.
Context switching helps CPU to handle multiple threads keeping the computer responsive and capable of handling a multiple operations at a time.
