Answer Posted / megha jain
CUI - character user interface
it is a mechanism for interacting by typing commands to
perform tasks
it is a time consuming process
it is difficult to use
eg. dos, unix
needs keyboard to both navigate and enter commands
it needs a number of commands to be memorized
the programmer controls the flow of actions
based on text
one task can run at a time
GUI - graphic user interface
it uses a mouse pointer to click the options or menus to
select options
it saves a lot of time
it is easier to use
eg. windows
displays commands, symbols and other visual cues
do not need memorization
the user controls the flow of actions
it is based on graphics
more task can run simultaneously
