Detailed explanation-1: -A. The program can also be expressed as binary code, but will be more easily understood by humans when expressed in a higher-level programming language.
Detailed explanation-2: -A programming language such as C, FORTRAN, or Pascal enables a programmer to write programs that are more or less independent from a particular type of computer.
Detailed explanation-3: -Machine code is a computer program written in machine language. It uses the instruction set of a particular computer architecture. It is usually written in binary. Machine code is the lowest level of software. Other programming languages are translated into machine code so the computer can execute them.
Detailed explanation-4: -Compiler. A compiler is a computer program that translates a program written in a high-level language to the machine language of a computer. The high-level program is referred to as ‘the source code.
Detailed explanation-5: -Explanation: An algorithm becomes a program when it is written in the form of a programming language. Thus, any program is an algorithm.
