Detailed explanation-1: -Expressivity-How easy the code is written and how easily understood by people and the compiler. So if a language has more complicated ways of specifying computations, it reduces expressivity.
Detailed explanation-2: -The language evaluation criteria are: • Readability: the ease with which programs can be read and understood. Writability: the ease with which a language can be used to create programs. Reliability: conformance to specifications (i.e., performs to its specifications). Cost: the ultimate total cost.
