Advantages of CUI

                  Some advantages of CUI are as follows:
                      It is easy to understand.
                      It accepts input and displays output in the form of text.

                      It allows users to write commands by typing one or two-line text known as command lines.
                  Disadvantages of CUI

                  It has a few disadvantages too:
                      People may find it difficult to remember all the commands.

                      It is not as user-friendly as other interfaces.
                  Graphical User Interface (GUI)

                  A Graphical User Interface is a type of interface that uses icons, buttons, pull-down menus,
                  and windows to interact with the computer. It replaces the text-based commands used in
                  a CUI with graphical elements such as icons, buttons, and menus. In this interface, users do
                  not need to remember  all the commands; instead they can give commands to the computer
                  by simply clicking with the mouse. Examples of GUIs include the Windows and Mac OS
                  operating systems.


























                  Advantages of GUI


                  There are many advantages of GUI over CUI:
                      It is easy to use, especially for beginners.
                      It is more visually appealing and attractive compared to CUI.
                      It provides the ability to use multiple applications simultaneously.
                      It is not necessary to remember commands to operate this interface.

                      It allows for remote access to a computer.
                      It enables easy exchange of information between software through cut-and-paste or 'drag
                     and drop' methods.
                      It usually provides immediate, visual feedback about the effect of each action.
