An arithmetic[-]logic unit (ALU) is a core component of all computer CPUs. ALUs are capable of calculating the results of a wide variety of basic arithmetical computations, most commonly the following ones:*integer arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication)*bitwise logic operations (AND, NOT, OR, XOR)*bit-shifting operations (shifting or rotating a word by a specified number of bits to the left or right, with or without sign extension)
