    Study Notes

    Computer Programs and Languages

    • A computer program is a set of instructions that a computer can execute.
    • A computer program is not a low-level language.

    Low-Level Languages

    • Machine language is a low-level language that uses binary code (0s and 1s) that a computer's processor can execute directly.
    • Assembly language is a low-level language that uses symbols to represent machine code instructions.

    Assembler

    • The purpose of an assembler is to translate assembly language into machine language.

    High-Level Languages

    • High-level languages are easy for humans to read and write, but difficult for computers to execute directly.
    • High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter.
    • Examples of high-level languages include Python, Java, and C++.
