    Study Notes

    Programming Language Types

    • Assembly Language

      • Uses symbolic names (mnemonics) to represent machine-level instructions.
      • Provides a one-to-one correspondence between its instructions and the specific machine code for a given architecture.
    • Low-Level Language

      • Specifically tailored to the architecture of a particular computer system.
      • Enables direct manipulation of hardware and system resources, optimizing performance.
    • Machine Language

      • Consists entirely of binary code (0s and 1s) that is directly executed by the computer's CPU.
      • Represents the most fundamental level of instructions understood by a computer.
    • High-Level Language

      • Designed to be easy for humans to read and write.
      • Abstracts complex operations and provides features such as control structures and data types for efficient program development.
    • Cross-Platform Language

      • Capable of running on multiple operating systems and hardware configurations with minimal or no changes needed to the source code.
      • Facilitate code portability, allowing developers to use the same codebase across different environments.
