 COMPUTER LANGUAGE ACE
As humans use language to communicate, and different
regions have different languages, Computers also have their
own languages that are specific to them.
Different kinds of languages have been developed to perform
different types of work on the computer. Basically, languages
can be divided into two categories according to how the
computer understand them.

 TYPES OF COMPUTER ACE
LANGUAGE
1. Low Level Language: A Language that responds directly
to a specific machine.
2. High Level Language: Any Language that is independent
of the machine.
There are also other types of languages, which includes:-
3. System Language: These are designed for low level tasks,
like memory and process management.
4. Scripting Languages: These tend to be high –level and
very powerful.

 Low-Level Languages ACE
Low-level computer languages are either machine codes or
are very close them. A computer can not understand
instructions given to it in high-level languages or in English. It
can only understand and execute instructions given in the form
of machine languages. i, e. binary.
There are two types of low-level languages:
i. Machine Language: A language that is directly
interpreted into the hardware.
ii. Assembly Languages: A slightly more user friendly
languages that directly corresponds to machine language

 Machine Language ACE
Machine language is the lowest and most elementary
level of programming language and was the first type of
programming language to be developed.
Machine language is basically the only language that a
computer can understand.
It is usually written in hex. Infect a manufacturer
designs a computer to obey just one language its
machine code which is represented inside the computer
by a string of binary digits(bits) 0 & 1.
The symbol of 0 stands for absence of an electric pulse
and the 1 stands for the presence of electric pulse.

 MACHINE LANGUAGE ACE

Advantage Disadvantage
i. Machine language makes i. All operation codes have
fast and efficient use of to be remember .
computer. ii. All memory address
ii. It requires no translator to have to be remembered
translate the code .
because it is directly iii. It is very hard to find
understood by the errors in a program
computer. written in machine
language.

 ASSEMBLY LANGUANGE ACE
Assembly language was develop to overcome some of the many
inconveniences of machine language .
This is another low-level but very important language in which
operation codes and operands are given in the form of alphanumeric
symbol instead of 0 & 1.
These alphanumeric symbols are known as mnemonic codes and can
combine in a maximum of five letters combinations
Examples :-ADD for addition, SUB for subtraction, START,LABEL etc.
Because of this features, assembly language is also known as
symbolic programming language.
This language is also very difficult and needs a lot of practice to
master it because there is only a little English support in this language.
Mostly assembly language is used to help in compiler orientations.
The instructions of the assembly language are converted to machine
codes by a language translator & then they are executed by the
computer .

 ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE ACE

Advantages Disadvantages
i. Assembly language is i. Like machine language
easier to under stand it is also machine
and use as compared dependent/specific.
to machine language. ii. Since it is machine
ii. It is easy to locate and dependent, the
correct errors. programmers also
iii. It is easily modified. needs to understand
the hardware.

 HIGH LEVEL LANGUAGE ACE
High level computer languages use formats that’s are similar
to English. the purpose of developing high level languages was
to able people to write programs easily , in their own native
language environment (English).
High level languages are basically symbolic languages. That
use English words and/or mathematical symbols rather than
mnemonic codes.
Each instructions in the high level language is translated into
many machine language instruction that the computer can
understand.

 TYPES OF HIGH LEVEL ACE
LANGUAGE
Algebraic formula type processing:-These languages are
oriented towards the computational procedures for solving
mathematical and statical problems.
Ex: BASIC(Beginners all purpose symbolic instruction code).
FORTRAN(Formula translation)
PL/I-(Programming language version 1)
ALGOL(Algorithmic language)

Business data processing:- These language are best able to

maintain data processing procedures and problems involved
handling files .
Ex:- COBOL(Common Business oriented language).
RPG(report Program Generator).

 TYPES OF HIGH LEVEL
LANGUAGE
ACE
String and List Processing:- These are used for string
manipulation, including search patterns and inserting and
deleting characters.
Ex:-LISP(List Processing), Prolog(Program in Logic).
Object- Oriented Programming Language:-In OOP, the
computer program is divided into objects.
Ex-C++, Java.
Visual programming:-These programming languages are
designed for building windows-based applications.
Examples are:- Visual Basic, Visual Java, Visual C.
