language is in the form of O's and I's and is directly interpreted by a
computer.

Answer:
That is just what you get when you break down language to it’s lowest components.
In the case of 0s and 1s (binary), these are actually combined in different forms to provide combinations of ‘words’ that a computer ultimately can process.
If you really wanted to be technical about it, then possibly the various combinations of 1s and 0s that make up CPU instructions (the instructions that the main chip of a computer, the Central Processing Unit, or CPU, can process) really make up the “language” that the computer can “understand” (sorry, I am using double quotes quite liberally there).
However, because it is very inconvenient and impractical for programmers to write those instructions in 1s and 0s, the various combinations are given codes that a programmer can remember can write. This is what is called “assembly language” and is still a very “low-level” language.
It looks like this (the bits after the semi-colons are just comments, not part of the actual language):
Because even assembly language is very cumbersome to code in, programmers have used it to build even “higher-level” languages that are easier for humans to understand and express. Consider the following piece of code from a language called “Ruby”:
