Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers. It is read by the computer’s central processing unit (CPU), is composed of digital binary numbers and looks like a very long sequence of zeros and ones.

Detailed explanation-2: -In computer programming, machine code is any low-level programming language, consisting of machine language instructions, which are used to control a computer’s central processing unit (CPU).

Detailed explanation-3: -Machine code and binary are the same-a number system with base 2-either a 1 or 0. But machine code can also be expressed in hex-format (hexadecimal)-a number system with base 16.

Detailed explanation-4: -Binary information is sometimes also referred to as machine language since it represents the most fundamental level of information stored in a computer system. At a physical level, the 0s and 1s are stored in the central processing unit of a computer system using transistors.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two primary types, the G-code and M-code. They’re created through almost the same process but have slightly different roles when making the machines work. This article will discuss those two types, the functions they perform, and how they’re differentiated.
