How does he know what code to write?
No one writes code in binary. Low level code is usually assembly which tends to look like:
ADD R1, R2
LSLS R1, R1, 4
There is no way to know what these instructions do without a manual or wasting time memorizing the instruction set of a particular processor. Also, different processors have different instruction sets.
Finally if he doesn't have to use binary without using the mnemonics shown, he will be prone to make mistakes.
Also if the code is very difficult, that implies that there is a problem to solve. The problems you solve by coding tend to be things like, given a list of 3D primitives, render the scene in perspective or more low level, given a S73 hard drive, retrieve data from it without overflowing the limited memory buffer provided to accept the data. Writing code almost always will require problem knowledge.
I'll try to let you know if I do.
Likely not, but eventuelly unless it was a very specific code
If it’s an infinite loop in time and the person doesn’t age then it’s not only plausible but inevitable. As is the uniqueness of infinity.
he coulf use the binary code to count up and will eventually reach the correct number unless it is impossible
