MICROPROCESSOR AND MICROCONTROLLER

Detailed explanation-1: -In the 1960s, a high-level programming language using a compiler was commonly called an autocode. Examples of autocodes are COBOL and Fortran. The first high-level programming language designed for computers was Plankalkül, created by Konrad Zuse.

Detailed explanation-2: -More than 50 years after its debut, Fortran, the first high-level computer language, is still used every day: in Doppler radar weather forecasts or atmospheric and oceanic studies, as well as simulating nanoparticles, genomes, DNA and atomic structures.

Detailed explanation-3: -COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) is a high-level programming language for business applications. It was the first popular language designed to be operating system-agnostic and is still in use in many financial and business applications today.

Detailed explanation-4: -COBOL is a procedural language, whereas FORTRAN is a compiled imperative language. Both are functional languages.

Detailed explanation-5: -CoBOL is technically considered a “high-level” language.
