When we use the keyboard, mouse or other devices for using computer - what happen?
- It send command to computer for performing a task (typing word, printing documents etc.).
- Computer perform a specific task using predefined instructions or program or software for that command.
Here
we need communication between user (people) and computer by a medium or
language. Computer can understand machine language (bit stream - by 0
and 1) only. But other languages such as assembly language, high level
language we can use for communication. So that it need a converter which
convert from these instructions into machine language called assembler, compiler or interpreter.
Programming language: A series of specifically defined commands designed by human programmers to give directions to digital computers.
The first high-level languages were introduced in the 1950's. Today, there are many high-level languages in use, such as BASIC, C, C++, Cobol, FORTRAN, Java, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Visual Basic.
