    The document discusses different types of computer programming languages: 1) Low-level languages (LLL) like binary are directly understood by hardware but difficult for humans. 2) Medium-level languages (MLL) like Assembly require translation but are closer to hardware. 3) High-level languages (HLL) like C++ are easier for humans but require compilation to low-level code. 4) Very high-level languages (VHLL) like Excel are developed for non-programmers and accelerate the process. Translators like assemblers, interpreters, and compilers are used to translate between language levels. Compilers are now preferred as they are faster and show all errors at

    COMPUTER PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES AND THEIR TYPES:

    A language is system of communication. A computer programming languages are used to instruct the computer
    hardware to perform specific task. These languages are divided into the following types

    1) LOW LEVEL LANGUAGE (LLL): it is also called first generation language, because it was developed in
    first generation computer in 1940. Computer understands it directly without any translation. That is why
    it is called hardware language. It is also called machine language. The example of this language is binary
    language which means 0 and 1. It is very difficult for the user or programmer to understand or write.
    2) MEDIUM LEVEL LANGUAG E (MLL): it is also called second generation language because it was
    developed in second generation of computer. It is the combination of both computer and user language.
    Computer can’t understand directly. It needs to be translated first for computer. The example of second
    generation language is Assembly language and the translator which used for translation the assembly
    language instruction is assembler.
    rd rd
    3) HIGH LEVEL LANGUAGE(HLL): it is also called 3 generation language because it was developed in 3
    generation of the computer. It is easy for the user to write or understand. Because it is near to the user
    language. Computer can’t understand directly. It needs to be translated first into low level language. The
    example of this level language is C, C++ and java etc. and the translator which is used for the translation of
    these languages are compiler and interpreter.
    th
    4) VERY HIGH LEVEL LANGUAGE(VHLL): it also called fourth generation language. It is developed in 4
    generation computer technology. It is also called non-procedural language the reason is user only needs
    to tell the computer what to do and how to do. These languages accelerate program process and reduce
    the coding error the example of these languages is query languges, MS Word, Ms Access and MS Excel
    etc.
    5) OBJECT ORIENTED LANGUAGE(OOL): OOP (Object Oriented Programming) is a technique in which
    programs are written on the basis of objects. Objects may be person, place or thing of the real world. It is
    the modern method of programming. In this method the code is divided into different class. Class is the
    combination of data members and member function. Java and C++ are also Object Oriented Languages.

    TRANSLATOR:

    It is software used to translate one into another language. This software is used to translate the instructions of
    high level language (user language) to low level language (computer language). There are three basic translator
    software are used. These are:

    ASSEMBLER: it is translating software used to translate the assembly language instructions into low level
    language.

    INTERPRETER: It is translating software used to translate the High level language instruction into low level
    language. It is very slow the reason is it translates one line at a time and if any error occurs in the program it will
    stop otherwise it goes to the next line. It does not keep any backup file for next time translation.

    COMPILER: it is translating software used to translate the high level language instruction into low level language.
    Almost now a day the compiler is built in all software, because it is very faster and save the time. It translates the
    whole program at a time. And all the errors if exist in the program will show in list form. It also keeps backup file
    for next time translation.
