Introduction to Programming Languages

A language that uses 1s and 0s to communicate with the CPU

A language that is easy for humans to read and write

A language that is directly executed by the CPU

A language that only works on one type of processor

They are portable and can run on any CPU

They are difficult to read and understand

They execute faster than low-level languages

They use binary code directly

A type of high-level language used in software development

A sequence of binary instructions that the CPU can execute directly

A set of instructions written using English words

A graphical programming language like Scratch

It translates high-level languages into English

It executes machine-code instructions

It converts assembly code into Python

It writes code for the programmer

Easy for humans to read, write, and modify

Uses variable names instead of memory addresses

Requires an assembler to execute

Portable across different CPUs

It uses English-like syntax

It directly references memory addresses

It does not use variables

It is executed more slowly

They are written in binary

They do not require a translator

They use words and symbols familiar to humans

They execute instructions faster than machine code

Assembly language is easier for humans to understand

Machine code uses symbols instead of binary numbers

Assembly language does not require translation before execution

Assembly language runs faster than machine code

It requires an interpreter to run

It uses symbols instead of binary for instructions

It is the same as machine code

It cannot be executed by any CPU

Multiple machine-code instructions

A single machine-code instruction

A single line of high-level code

A complete program
