arithmetic/logic unit

Rationale: The arithmetic/logic unit (ALU) is the section of a CPU core that performs arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) involving integers and logical operations (such as comparing two pieces of data to see if they are equal or determining if a specific condition is true or false). Arithmetic operations are performed when mathematical calculations are requested by the user as well as when many other common computing tasks are performed. See 2-3: How the CPU Works
