COMPUTER PROGRAMMING
Computer programming is the process of writing a set of instructions that the computer will execute in other to perform a particular task. It is also the process of using a set of computer codes to instruct the computer what to do. After these instruction have been written by a programmer they will be:
1. Save as a program file.
2. Run by the programmer.
Programs are written by a programmer using computer programming language.
programming language is a language that can be understood by the computer and can be used to instruct the computer. programming language are classify into two
1. Low level language (LLL): are language that are closer to the hardware and can be used to perform any level of hardware interaction. Examp
le of such language are machine and assembly language.
2. High level language (HLL): are language that are more concerned with problem than the architecture of the computer system these language are close to human language there are java, c, c++, c#, php, vb, html.
Early programming started with machine language where user has to write sequence of instruction in form of binary number consisting of 0's and 1's, using machine language to program made the execution faster but it was tedious to code, modify and to debug. this give rise to assembly language and high level language. The only language a computer understood is machine language.
Language translator is use to translate written program to machine executable code(binary)
