Clock Cycles Per Instruction (CPI) Calculator

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

• Total Number of Cycles (C): 1,000,000 cycles
• Total Number of Instructions (I): 250,000 instructions

Using the formula to calculate the Clock Cycles Per Instruction:

$$\text{CPI} = \frac{1000000}{250000} = 4 \, \text{cycles/instruction}$$

This demonstrates that with 1,000,000 cycles and 250,000 instructions, the CPI would be 4 cycles per instruction.
