| Abstract: | The article focuses on program interpreters in computers. A program written in machine language can directly drive the computer's hardware components, because each machine language instruction can be directly represented as a pattern of low and high voltages that, when applied to the computer's central processing unit, causes the specified computation to occur. When a machine language program is represented textually, the pattern of low and high voltages is written as a sequence of Os and 1s interpreted as a binary number. For human readability, other bases such as octal, decimal, or hexadecimal are also used for writing the numbers corresponding to the pattern of voltages in a machine language instruction. |
