    A cache is a special high-speed storage mechanism that temporarily stores frequently accessed data to provide faster access and improve performance. It helps reduce the time needed to access data by storing a copy of frequently used information closer to the CPU or user.
    Types of Cache:
    CPU Cache: A small memory inside the CPU that stores instructions and data for quicker processing.
    Web Cache: Stores copies of web pages to reduce loading times.
    Disk Cache: Stores frequently accessed data from the hard disk to speed up read/write operations.
    With Internet browsers, cache is a temporary storage area where website data is stored.
     Cache memory has the shortest access time.
     The processor can retrieve data or instructions from the cache memory.
     Cache memory acts between- CPU and RAM.
