COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -The main advantage of high-level languages over low-level languages is that they are easier to read, write, and maintain. Ultimately, programs written in a high-level language must be translated into machine language by a compiler or interpreter.

Detailed explanation-2: -High level language is much closer to human language so it is more suitable to write code in high level language. It is more or less independent of the particular type of computer used (i.e. more portable) and has its own set of rules called syntax. Its main advantage is that it is easier to read, write and maintain.

Detailed explanation-3: -High-level languages use command words and Syntax which reflects everyday language, which makes them easier to learn and use. High-level languages also offer the programmer development tools such as libraries and built-in functions.

Detailed explanation-4: -Low-level programs are expressed in terms of the machine operations that must be performed to carry out a task. This makes writing programs more difficult, as the algorithm must be specified in terms of the capabilities and specifications of the processor.
