Question

7/18
why cant hardware directly execute code written in languages like python or java?
they need internet to run scripts
they only understand on and off signals
they require touch screens to read code
they only work with pictures and icons

Explanation:

Computer hardware (CPU) operates using binary logic, which consists of only two states: ON (represented as 1) and OFF (represented as 0). High-level languages like Python or Java use human-readable syntax that hardware cannot interpret directly; these languages must first be translated into machine code (binary signals) for hardware to execute. The other options are incorrect: internet access is not required for local script execution, touch screens are input/output devices not related to code interpretation, and hardware does not rely on pictures/icons to run code.

Answer:

They only understand ON and OFF signals
