Fetch/Execute Cycle

Chris Ray

In chapter 2, we learned about the Fetch/Execute cycle. I can liken this to my life in many ways. Each day, I encounter different problems that I must decide what to do and when to do. For example, each morning I wake up to my alarm. I must then decide whether I should go to class or not go to class. I fetch the possible solutions, decide which one to use, execute this decision, and then write back what my thoughts are. I hate waking up in the morning, but when I fetch for possible solutions to this problem, I know it can be bad if I miss class. I execute the solution that will suit me best.
