Languages

There are three levels of languages on programming. 1. Low Level: Machine Language (binary) 2. Intermediate Level: Assembly Language 3. Higher Level: HTML, QBasic, Java, etc. Machine Language: This is the language that the hardware actually understands. This is written in Binary Code. Every program, no matter in which language, has to be translated into Binary Code. Assembly Language A assembler program will translate the assembly language into Binary code. I don't have much information about the Assembly Language Higher Level These are some examples of Higher Level Languages. Some of these are pretty old, but just incase, they are here

FORTRAN: FORmula TRANslator. This was the first language made by IBM in 1954. The first compiler was finished in April of 1957. (compiler: translates higher level languages) COBOL: COmmon Business Oriented Language. This was the second language ever developed. It was developed in 1959. BASIC: Begginers All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. This was developed in Darthmouth College in 1964. Pascal: Named after Blaise Pascal. It was developed by Nicholas Wirth.
