    They don't type out the 0s and 1s, no. 😅

    @otacon239@lemmy.world wrote "Assembly/Binary", because an Assembly language is basically just a list of aliases (or mnemonics) for the different combinations of 0s and 1s.

    For example, HLT (Halt) may translate to 00000001, which is then already what your CPU understands.

    In practice, these lists for the different Assembly languages will look like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opcode#Sample_opcode_table
