Programming Language

A system of symbols, punctuation, notation, keywords, and syntax that instructs a computer on how to execute specific tasks.

Programmer

A person who writes, tests, debugs, and maintains computer programs. They are the authors of the source code.

Machine Language

The lowest-level programming language written in binary code (1 and 0) that a computer can directly execute without translation.

Assembly Language

A low-level language that uses mnemonics to write program code. Mnemonics are codes that are easy to remember and represent computer operations. It requires an assembler to convert it into machine language.
