• Compiled Language

a programming language where the source code is translated into machine code and the machine code is stored in a separate file.

• Interpreted Language

• Compiled Language

A high level language example is

• Python

• Binary

• Machine Code

• Assembly Language

High Level Languages...

• are designed to simplify programming instructions for human use

• are close to natural language spoken and written by humans.

• are machine friendly and difficult to learn and understand

• are relatively fast and efficient for machines to run

OOP language

• Order Orientated Programming

• Object Order Programming

• Outer Object Programming
