description
Language in which a computer programmer writes instructions for a computer to execute. An artificial language used to write instructions that can be translated into machine language and then executed by a computer. Some languages, such as COBOL, FORTRAN, Pascal, and C, are known as procedural languages because they use a sequence of commands to specify how the machine is to solve a problem. Others, such as LISP, are functional, in that programming is done by invoking procedures (sections of code executed within a program)

• Language in which a computer programmer writes instructions for a computer to execute. • An artificial language used to write instructions that can be translated into machine language and then executed by a computer.• Some languages, such as COBOL, FORTRAN, PASCAL, and C, are known as procedural languages because they use a sequence of commands to specify how the machine is to solve a problem. Others, such as LISP, are functional, in that programming is done by invoking procedures (sections of CODE executed within a program)• Programming languages can also be classified as high-level or low-level. • Low-level languages address the computer in a way that it can understand directly, but they are very far from human language. • High-level languages deal in concepts that humans devise and can understand, but they must be translated by means of a COMPILER into language the computer understands.
