Language of computer

Language of Computer

Computer understands only the electronic signals (Binary Language). Either current is following or not.

1. Current Flowing :ON : 1 True
2. Current Not Flowing :OFF : 0 False

Programming Language

A software is created with programming language and related utilities, which may come in several of the above forms; and large suites (often called Integrated Development Environment; IDE) that include editors, debuggers, and other tools for multiple languages.There are two types of programming language…

1. High level language used by programmer for e.g. -COBOL, PASCAL, C, C++, JAVA . NET etc.

2. Low level or Machine level language (Binary) There is a translator to translate high level to low level and vice versa.

Compiler

Compiler is a kind of system software specially known as a Utility program. Compiler translate the High level Language to low language so that data and instruction passed through you program is executed with the help of computer.

Interpreter

Interpreter is also a translator which translates the High level language into machine level code to be executed but it differs from compiler, it checks programs line by and when it gets the first line correct then it sends to execute and when if there are many mistakes exist in the program during deploying (running) process then it prompts you to rectify the error whereas compiler checks entire program at once if the program is correct, sends to execute otherwise prompt you to reconsider. Interpreter is used in Visual Basic etc.

Assembler

It is used in Assembly level language which is used to translate the Mnemonics and register variables to machine level code to execute.

High level language

High level language is the programming language which uses text commands written in general English near to user comprehension. This kind of programming language needs a Compiler or Interpreter so that the program code may be converted into machine level code. Examples of High level language are C, C++, BASIC, FORTRON, JAVA, Visual Basic etc.
