What is Programming Language?

A set of rules or instructions.

A set of rules for converting an algorithm.
A language framework for describing computations.
Symbols, words, rules of semantics.
(Syntax and Semantics).

Levels of Programming Languages

High Level Language

A high-level language is any programming language that enables
development of a program in a much more user-friendly
programming context and is generally independent of the
computer’s hardware architecture.

Levels of Programming Languages (Cont.)

Assembly Level Language

Assembly language is a low-level programming language for a
computer or other programmable device specific to a particular
computer architecture in contrast to most high-level programming
languages, which are generally portable across multiple systems.

Introduction Course Books and Material About Programming Flow Chart Assignmentl

Levels of Programming Languages (Cont.)

Machine Level Language

Machine language and assembly language are both low-level
languages, but machine code is below assembly in the hierarchy of
computer languages. Assembly language includes human-readable
commands, such as mov, add, and sub, while machine language
does not contain any words or even letters.

The Evolution of Computer Programming Languages

Introduction Course Books and Material About Programming Flow Chart Assignmentl

History of Python Programming

Python was conceptualized

by Guido Van Rossum in
late 1980s. Rossum
published the fisrt version of
python code (0.9.0) in Feb
1991 in Netherland.
Python is derive from ABC
programming language,
which is a general purpose
programming language.
He has selected the name
since he was a big fan of Figure: Python’s creator Guido Van
Rossum
Monty Python’s Flying
Circus.
