CUDA, which stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, is a parallel computing platform and application programming interface (API) created by NVIDIA. It allows developers to leverage the power of NVIDIA GPUs (graphics processing units) for general-purpose computing tasks, not just graphics rendering. CUDA provides a C/C++-like programming language and enables developers to write code that can be executed on the GPU, allowing for massive parallel processing capabilities.
