The difference between high level languages and machine languages are as follows: 1)Machine language uses binary numbers/codes but high level languages(HLL) use key words similar to English and are easier to write. 2)Machine Language is a Low level language and is machine dependant while HLLs are not.
A programming language that is machine-independent is called a "high-level" language - this includes Java, C++, Python, etc. A programming language that is machine-dependent is called a "low-level" language. For PCs, this usually includes assembly, binary code or some proprietary languages on embedded devices.
high level language are easier to learn
It is meaningless. The term 'high-level language' implies a high-level of abstraction between the source code and the resultant machine code. In order for there to be a one-to-one relationship between the source code and the machine code, there must be little to no abstraction; the source language must be low-level. Assembly language is a low-level language with little to no abstraction.
high level language is converted to machine level language using a compiler or an interpreter
I am not sure about the answer but think so, Assembler: Its a program that converts a low level language into machine code, and there is a one-to-one correspondence between the source language statements and machine instructions Macro- Assembler: It performs the same task as does the assembler but there is some times a one-to-many correspondence between the source language statements and machine instructions. Please discuss further...
A language at the level of the machine it runs on. AKA Machine code, it's the underlying language that computer CPU's speak.
A compiler is actually a program. However the function of a compiler it to take a programmers high level language code and render this as binary machine language instructions that a specific processor can execute.
compiler is a software translator used in ProgrammingLanguage: C,C++, Java etc ). This used for to translate High level language to Machine independent language. Interpreter is used to translate source code to machine code by line by line.
The level of a language is an indication of how abstract it is compared to the machine code it produces. The higher the level, the further it is from the machine and thus the more abstract it is. Assembly language has a near 1:1 translation to machine code with very little in the way of abstraction, thus it is a low-level language.
Well its like this, a high level language is a language for programming computers which does not require detailed knowledge of a specific computer, as a low-level language does.High-level languages do not have to be written for a particular computer, but must be compiled for the computer they will work with.High-level languages are closer to human language than low-level languages, and include statements like GOTO or FOR which are regular words On the other hand, a low level language is a computer programming language that is close to machine language.Machine language is at the lowest level, because it is the actual binary code of 1s and 0s that the computer understands.Assembly languages are low- level languages which are translated into machine code by an assembler.Each assembly language instruction corresponds to one machine language instruction, but assembly language is easier notation for the programmer to use than machine code.

| Feature | High-Level Language | Low-Level Language | Machine Language | |------------------------|------------------------------|----------------------------|-----------------------------| | Abstraction Level | High (closer to human language)| Medium (closer to hardware) | Low (binary code for CPU) | | Readability | Easy to read and write | Less readable, more complex | Not human-readable | | Portability | Highly portable across platforms | Less portable, hardware-specific | Not portable, specific to architecture | | Examples | Python, Java, C++ | Assembly language | Binary code (0s and 1s) |
A low-level language is any symbolic computer programming language that has a low-level of abstraction between the language itself and the machine code that it produces. Assembler language has a near 1:1 relationship with its resultant machine code and is therefore a low-level language. In fact, the only things lower than assembler language is machine code itself and disassembly, which is the reverse of assembly, both of which have no abstraction whatsoever. The only real difference between assembler language and disassembly are that disassembly has none of the comments and none of the symbolic references used by the original assembler, since both were stripped out during assembly. However, a competent hacker, with the aid of the disassembler, can reconstruct a facsimile of the original assembler from the machine code disassembly, thus permitting software to be reverse-engineered.
