How do the instructions that people write for computers transcribe into binary form?

Each symbol has a preassigned code. What you see as an A on your keyboard, the computer sees as 01000001.
What you see as WikiAnswers, the computer sees as 01010111 01101001 01101011 01101001 01000001 01101110 01110011 01110111 01100101 01110010 01110011.
There is a code for each capital letter, each lower case letter, each number, and each symbol. Whatever you enter already has a preassigned binary equal.

What languages do computers understand?
They only understand machine language, which most people associate with binary code. But it's more than just binary digits. A certain sequence of some of them equates to a specific instruction for the CPU to execute. You could see this in assembly language.
What language does a computer speak?
All computers are adapted to know many languages due to the large amount of people buying them in society. Computers are sold everywhere therefore it is useful for them to be programed to the users original language, you can change the language in the settings.
What relates to computers?
Electricity, binary, people, banks, games, calculations, data - take your pick.
What needs instructions to work?
ovens, people, dogs, computers, etc, etc,etc,
What are the only two numbers that computers use for processing?
0 and 1. There are only 10 types of people. Those that understand binary and those that do not! If you do not understand that sentence you do not understand binary.
What is the connection of boolean algebra into computers?
The connection stems from the fact that in Boolean logic binary numbers are used and these are used in computers as well. That reminds of a joke you may have heard. There are only 10 kinds of people: -those who understand binary; -those who don't
What is the primary use for brinary code?
Binary code is the basic language of "ones" and "zeros" with which computers operate. It is useful to people working in computer science to know how to convert between binary and decimal notations, for various reasons involving basic fundamental operations of computers.
Is a set of instructions or statements to the computer?
Computer language, or coding language, can be in a variety of different formats. These 'languages' may include C, C++, C#, Java, Ruby, Python, and others. Many of these languages are converted into binary code (the code that computers actually understand) before they are run. Binary code is not readable by humans, but computer languages are. That is why most people write instructions in a programming languages and then use another program to convert that code into binary.
7 Why is binary code suitable for use with computers?
Binary is well suited for computers because it only needs two symbols to represent numbers a 1 and a 0. In a computer a circuit can be in 2 states on and off hence in the simplest implementation"on" represents a 1 and "off" a 0.
What is the output of a compiler?
A compiler accepts computer instructions in a language people understand and converts them into a language computers understand.
Why do people use the decimal system instead of the binary octal or hexadecimal systems?
I think people use the decimal system because we have 10 fingers and it's more intuitive that way. Computers use octal or hex because the base is a power of 2 (8=2^3, 16=2^4), and the computers work in binary, 0 or 1, 2 values.
Do people in Africa have computers?
No. Only monkey tubes exist in Africa: you pull the monkey's tail and it positions itself as a binary 1, and you bop it on the head and it positions itself as binary 0. Usually getting all the monkeys in row to participate in the binary sequence is quite challenging - I recommend bananas laced with Valium.
