    It provides a computer with a bunch of information that the computer can use to interpret into other information that we can understand.

    It's one of those things where you'r not ever going to understand unless you spend a good chunk of time learning it

    like astrophysics, isn't there a book about astrophysics for people who don't have time to read or some shit? lol

    The code you write, for example Java, C, Ruby or whatever else, is mostly designed to make sense to the person writing the code. Once you're done you 'compile' it, which converts it from human-readable code to machine code for your computer, or 'instructions'.

    It's possible to read and write machine code directly but it's very, very time consuming and extremely difficult for humans to read and understand.
