Programming Languages
A computer system is simply a machine and hence it cannot perform any work; therefore, in order to make it, different functional languages are developed, which are known as programming languages or simply computer languages.
Languages come with their own set of vocabulary and rules, better known as syntax
Following are the significant categories of Programming Languages −
1. Machine Language
2. Assembly Language
3. High-Level Language
4. System Language
5. Scripting Language
Machine Language or Code
This is the language that is written for the computer hardware. Such language is affected directly by the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer system.
Assembly Language
It is a language of encoding machine code that makes it simpler and more readable.
High-Level Language
The high-level language is simple and easy to understand and it is similar to the English language. For example, COBOL, FORTRAN, BASIC, C, C+, Python, etc.
