Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

Early generation programming languages worked at machine level or close to it by using complex symbolic notation. Which of these listed languages DOES NOT fit this description?

A	Assembler
B	Binary
C	C
D	None of the above

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -A first-generation programming language (1GL) is a machine-level programming language.

Detailed explanation-2: -The computers in this generation used machine code as the programming language.

Detailed explanation-3: -First-, Second-and Third-Generation Languages First-generation languages are binary machine languages. Second-generation languages are machine-dependent assembly languages, and third-generation languages (3GLs) are high-level programming languages, such as FORTRAN, COBOL, BASIC, Pascal, C/C++ and Java.

Detailed explanation-4: -The correct answer is Assembly Language. Assembly language uses symbols to represent binary codes of machine-level instructions. The symbols (mnemonics) in Assembly Language are used to represent binary codes that are used in machine language (the most fundamental form of programming languages).
