Computer language
Ø
Low level language
Low level languages are
the basic computer instructions or better known as machine codes. A computer
cannot understand any instruction given to it by the user in English or any
other high level language. These low level languages are very easily
understandable by the machine.
The main function of
low level languages is to interact with the hardware of the computer. They help
in operating, syncing and managing all the hardware and system components of
the computer. They handle all the instructions which form the architecture of
the hardware systems.
Ø
Middle level language
This is one of the most
basic low level languages. The language was first developed to interact with
the first generation computers. It is written in binary code or machine code,
which means it basically comprises of only two digits – 1 and 0.
Ø
High level language
When we talk about high
level languages, these are programming languages. Some prominent examples are
PASCAL, FORTRAN, C++ etc.
The important feature
about such high level languages is that they allow the programmer to write
programs for all types of computers and systems. Every instruction in high
level language is converted to machine language for the computer to comprehend.
