Computer Languages
The different kinds of languages have been developed to perform various types of work on the
computer. The two major types of programming languages are Low-Level Languages and High-Level
Languages.
Low-Level languages
It is a programming language that deals with a computer's hardware and its configuration. It is very
close to the computer’s native language. It is further divided into Machine and Assembly languages.
Machine Language – It consists of binary digits or bits. It can directly understand by the computer and
does not need a translator program. It is also called the machine code. It is efficient but difficult to
learn.
Advantages
➢ Programs run fast.
➢ No translation program is required.
Disadvantages
➢ Difficult to program
➢ Debugging is also an issue
Assembly Language – A combination of letters and numbers forms the Assembly Language and a
translator program is required to translate to the machine language. The operation codes and
operands
are given in the form of alphanumeric symbols which are known as mnemonic codes and can combine
in a maximum of five-letter combinations e.g. ADD for addition, SUB for subtraction etc. This is also
known as Symbolic Programming Language.
