Difference between high level language and …

High-level language

• It can be easily interpreted as well as compiled in comparison to low-level language.
• It can be considered as a programmer-friendly language.
• It is easy to understand.
• It is easy to debug.
• It is simple in terms of maintenance.
• It requires a compiler/interpreter to be translated into machine code.
• It can be run on different platforms.
• It can be ported from one location to another.
• It is less memory efficient, i.e it consumes more memory in comparison to low-level languages.
• Examples of high level languages include C, C++, Java, Python.
• It is used widely in today's times.

Low-level language

• It is also known as machine level language.
• It can be understood easily by the machine.
• It is considered as a machine-friendly language.
• It is difficult to understand.
• It is difficult to debug.
• Its maintenance is also complex.
• It is not portable.
• It depends on the machine; hence it can't be run on different platforms.
• It requires an assembler that would translate instructions.
• It is not used widely in today's times.
