A program is set of instructions.
 A computer program is a specific set of
ordered operations for a computer to
perform.
 The computer gets one instruction and
performs it and then gets the next
instruction.
A language for writing computer program is
called programming language.
 Following are types of Programming
Languages.
1. Machine Languages (First Generation
Language/ Low Level Language):
 Machine language is also called binary
language or language of 0 and 1. Computer is
directly understands the machine language.
It is very much difficult for human to
understand machine language
2. Assembly Language (Second
Generation/Middle Level Language):
 In this language symbols are used instead of
binary code. These symbols are called
mnemonics codes.
 For example MUL is used for multiplication.
The assembler converts the assembly
language instruction to machine language.
3. High-Level Language (Third Generation
Language):
 A language which is close to human language
is called high-level language. Compilers or
interpreters covert high-level language into
machine code. Following are high-level
languages.
 BASIC, FORTRAN, PASCAL, HTML, Php ,C C++,
C#.NET, VB.NET, Python ,Java, COBOL, etc.
4 Non Procedural Language (Fourth
Generation Language):
 In this language user only tell the computer
“what to do” and “how to do”. It can be
used by non-technical user to perform a
specific task.
 Examples are word, excel, access and oracle
etc.
A computer virus is a program that is loaded
onto your computer without your knowledge.

 All computer viruses are man-made.

 Virus can removed by antivirus.


 Computer crime is crime that involves a
computer.
 Computer Crimes are:
• Network Hacking.
• Credit-card theft.
• Fake accounts.
• Etc….
 Microsoft Disk Operating System, MS-DOS is
a non-graphical command line operating
system.
 MS-DOS is working by using MS-DOS
commands.
 The physical components of computer system
are called hardware.
 It can be touched.
 Examples:
 Hard disk
 Keyboard
 RAM
 Monitor etc.
