(b) A Von Neumann architecture machine, designed by physicist and mathematician John Von Neumann (1903-1957) is a theoretical design for a stored program computer that serves as the basis for almost all modern computers. (i) Describe the Von Neumann computer architecture with the aid of a diagram. (ii) Explain why Von Neumann computer architecture has the strongest influences on the basic design of the imperative or procedural languages.
