is object-oriented programming language considered computer dependent?

This is not homework, I am just wondering.

Sorry I am not trying to sound stupid about it, and I figured that it was computer dependant, I just wanted to make sure I am actually understanding.

No .. it is not computer dependent because it is a high level language .. u write the same code and compile it on different compilers to run on different machines with different architectures. For example, C++ is a high level language and it's object oriented .. and lets say that u need to write a c++ program to run on a PC (intel or AMD machine) and on a SPARC or PowerPC machine (like the old MACs) .. then you write the same code and compile it on different compilers .. each compiler compiles your code to the specific machine-dependent assembly language..

I HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL

I think you need to clarify your question. As a programming language, it would require a computer and therefore would be computer dependant.
