Did you try typing that question into Google?
There are many answers that explain better than I could.

Basically it's a set of keywords and "grammar" rules that are used to control machine behavior and can then be converted into the 1's and 0's that a machine can then understand, allowing it to perform the behavior you defined.  But wikipedia explains it much better than I can!
