This particular device does not have a programming language. What happens is that the numbers and connections that represent something like a linear programming array are input by adjusting electrical characteristics of nodes, then the process is put in motion to generate presumably the correct values. They run it several times with the assumption that the most common answer is the energy state minimum that holds the right answer. This is an analog process. Analog set up of an input array and then readout of the answer array.
