What is "cuda"

CUDA is a general-purpose parallel computing platform that takes advantage of NVIDIA Graphics Processing Units (Gpus) to solve many complex computational problems in a fraction of the time needed on a CPU. It includes the CUDA ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) instruction set architecture and the parallel computing engine in the GPU. To program according to the CUDA architecture, developers today can use C - one of the most widely used programming languages capable of low-level operations, which can then be executed with high performance on a CUDA-compatible processor
