Modern central processing units (CPUs) operate using a specific instruction set. When a software developer writes a program in a high-level language such as Python or C++, the source code cannot be directly executed by the processor.
Identify the lowest-level programming representation that this high-level source code must ultimately be translated into before it can be run directly by the CPU.
