it is a virtual machine that runs the smart contracts on the ethereum blockchain
2. bytecode
3. you can write your comandes for the smart contract with Solidity but they need to get compiled to bytecode because the smart contract is in bytecode
4. because it should not get spammed, it should just be digital gold
5. turing complete programming language means you can write a program that will find a answers…I believe I heard about the turing test for AI

it’s an application that acts intermediately between the smart contract and the node’s cpu (it’s in every node of the network). It’s presente mainly for security reasons. The EVM reads the smart contract’s code and tells the computer’s CPU to execute its instructions.
-
While the instructions are usually written in Solidity, they are compiled in byte code via a compiler and read by the EVM as such, that is in byte code.
-
Solidity a high level programming language which is then compiled in byte code so that the EVM can read it and utilize those instructions by relaying them to the node’s CPU.

& 5. Because Bitcoin’s programming language (Script) isn’t a Turing complete programming language, therefore it “can’t do anything you can think of” as opposed to other Turing complete programming languages (like Solidity).

- The EVM reads and executes the Bytecode of smart contracts and every node has a copy. Using the EVM protects the node’s cpu in the network.
- Reads Bytecodes.
- EVM can read Solidity language through Bytecode.
- Script is not Turing complete so it doesn’t have as many functions as Solidity.
- A Turning complete program allows loops and can execute any math problem.

2.What is the format of the instructions that the EVM can read?
Quite close sir, but Solidity is the programming language that you use to create/design smart contracts, after that, it will be compiled into ByteCode, so the format of the instructions that EVM reads is Bytecode.
5.What is a Turing Complete programming language?
Indeed, but that could be one of the abilities of the Turing Complete programming language, could you please describe it in general terms?
If you have any more questions, please let us know so we can help you!

The EVM is software that runs on top of each computer node participating on the Ethereum network. EVM allows for smart contracts to be executed without using the Node’s CPU directly.
-
The EVM reads the bytecode.
-
Solidity is the programming language used to write smart contracts. A special application is used to compile the logic and instructions in the Solidity language and compiles it down to byte code for the EVM to read the smart contract.
-
Bitcoin is unable to run the same types of complex programs because is it written in a non-turing complete language. Bitcoin script is primitive and simple- yet incredibly effective at what is does.

A turing complete programming language is a computational language that can theoretically solve all complex problems. For a programming language to be turing complete it must have “if…then…else…” statements and it must have an arbitrary amount of memory.

- EVM is a piece of code on all computers on the network. It is built on top of existing hardware of the nodes. EVM will read/take a look at the instructions and execute it. It will tell what the computers to do. To reach a consensus like bitcoin, all the nodes on etherium have to come to the same result to create a consensus.
- It reads the byte code.
- It is a special application that takes the solidty code and compiles the logic and instructions and then compiles this into a byte code.
- Because it is not turing complete.

An EVM reads the Bytecode and executes it to the CPU. Without the EVM, smart contracts would work with the CPU directly. EVM’s are able to work with multiple languages because it is simply reading the Bytecode, therefore making the entire system more secure and usable.

Solidity can be converted into Bytecode and read by the EVM. Solidity is simply a programming language that makes it easier for humans to program in.

Bitcoin does not run on a Turing Complete programming language. Therefor it cannot have complex smart contracts running on it.
-
Turing Complete programming languages allow for loops. Loops are what make programming languages capable of performing complex tasks over and over again. This is what allows smart contracts to operate effectively and theoretically solve any problem.

4.BTC is not Turing complete, which means that the language in BTC is limited in what can be programmed as its designed to simply be a digital currency or store of wealth. Ex. you cannot program Loops in BTC.
- A Turing Complete programming language allows for broader and more specific programming and scripting and gives devs the ability to create any new application at least in theory.

What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode?
Bytecode is the output of compiling Solidity source code. EVM cannot interpret solidity code as is. That code has to be compiled to Bytecode to be understood by EVM. -
Why can’t Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?
Because its programatic language Script is not Turing-complete.
Bitcoin’s blockchain is optimized for Bitcoin to be a storage of value and not to compute complex code.

- What is the relationship between the programming language Solidity and Bytecode?
- Solidity, similar and readable like Javascript, is a programming language that compiles information to byte code so that the EVM can read the information.
- Why can’t Bitcoin run the same type of complex programs like Ethereum can?
- Because it is not Turing complete. It cannot solve more complicated problems that one might want to solve. BTC runs on script, which can only run very primitive programs i.e. multi-signature.
- What is a Turing Complete programming language?
- It makes a program, such as Solidity or Viper, completely flexible in the sense that one could theoretically program anything that one could think of to program. There is no limit to what one could program that is Turing complete. One of the ways that this is done is through Loops.
