High level programming language is an object oriented programming language. It is also an advanced computer programming language. FORTRAN, C, COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language), Prolog and PASCAL are some of the common examples of high level language. FORTRAN is mostly used for scientific calculation and COBOL is used for business purpose.
Main features of high level language are the following:
High level languages are further divided into three parts. These are:
Computer instructions are written in a language called computer programming language. Which one of the following level languages is directly understood by microprocessor?
(A) High level
(B) Low level
(C) Middle level
(D) All of these
(E) None of these
Answer: (b)
Explanation
Correct Option:
(B) Low level languages: are directly understood by microprocessor because they are written in 0's and 1's form. There is no need to any translator.
Incorrect Options:
(A) High Level languages: require translators, such as interpreter to converts high level language to machine level language. This machine code is understood by microprocessor.
(C) Middle Level languages: also require translators, such as interpreter and compiler to converts machine level language. This machine code is understood by microprocessor.
OOP language is based on class and object terminology. Which one of the following level languages provides OOP features?
(A) High level
(B) Low level
(C) Middle level
(D) All of these
(E) None of these
Answer: (a)
Explanation
Correct Option:
(A) High level languages: such as C++ provides OOP features.
Incorrect Options:
(B) Low level languages: do not provide OOP features.
(C) Middle level languages: do not provide OOP features.
