What is a programming language?

The programming language is a set of instructions that executes by a computer. As we know in daily life to
communicate with anyone, we need to know a language and language is the set of words that we used to
communicate with each other.
These set of words are instructions which help us to communicate. So, everywhere to communicate a set
of instructions is required, and this setup instructions are a language.
We, humans, communicate with each other using different-different languages region-wise. Similarly,
when it comes to computers, computer parts communicate with each other using a language or set of
instructions.
To communicate in English, we use A-Z all 26 characters and these 26 characters are the base of our
English language. Computer language is also having something similar to English characters but not many
as English. The computer only has 2 bits 1s and 0s.
And all computer communications are based on these two bits. The computer only understands this two-
bit language. It can be harder for humans but still, it is easier for the computer.
So, till now we knew everyone needs a language to communicate whether it is human or machine. For
humans, we call it speaking languages and for the computer, we call it programming language.
But why do we call it a programming language?
We call it programming language because if we need to pass some set of instructions to communicate with
a computer, we need to write some programs. Same as if our keyboard, mouse, light pen, and other
peripherals are attached to our computer and they are working.
It means some programs are written that’s why these attached things are working and these programs are
nothing but only a set of instructions.
Now we come to if there are only 2 bits 1s and 0s in computer language then how does it understand every
English and another language word? It is simple to answer this, a combination of 1s and 0s bit helps to
create every word meaning in a computer.
We have discussed a computer language as a set of instructions and the way we write these instructions is
a program in computer language.

What is a programming language?

A programming language is a computer language that is a set of instructions for a computer to execute,
and programmers use this language to develop computer software, tools, scripts, etc.
The programming language is a tool to write a set of instructions for a computer to follow. The computer
only understands binary number 1s and 0s, and a programming language converts these binary numbers
into human-readable language.
