Okay, you win. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> I no speaka da assembly language (if that's what it is).<br>

[Richard K Niner]

Actually, it's called machine code; assembly language looks like this:<br>addi $30, $30, -4<br>beq $0, $0, -2<br><br>...which looks like the following in a high-level language:<br>while (0 == 0) { System.doSomethingReallyReally<i>Really</i>Bad(); }

when are you people ever going to learn that the computer only <b>pretends</b> to speak those languages?

[Holyman83]

true CPUs only talk in binary.<br><br>edit: well it prolly has a translater on it to change to proccesers code into binary.
