Test Bank Solution Manual for Understanding Machine Code and Programming Languages Rated A+
Machine code - Answers The lowest-level programming language, consisting of binary code directly
executable by a computer's CPU and specific to a particular architecture.
Low-level programming language - Answers Languages closer to machine code with little abstraction
from hardware, such as assembly language and machine code itself.
High-level programming language - Answers Languages providing a greater level of abstraction, easier to
read and write, examples include Python, Java, and C#.
Abstraction - Answers High-level languages abstract hardware details, while low-level languages do not.
Syntax - Answers High-level languages have user-friendly syntax; low-level languages use complex,
machine-specific syntax.
Portability - Answers High-level languages are more portable across platforms; low-level languages are
architecture-specific.
Development Speed - Answers High-level languages allow faster development; low-level languages
require more time and effort.
Performance - Answers Low-level languages can offer better performance and optimization; high-level
languages may be slower.
Error Handling - Answers High-level languages provide better error handling and debugging tools; low-
level languages require more manual tracking.
Compiler - Answers A program translating source code from a high-level language into machine code for
execution by the computer.
Translator - Answers A program converting code from one form to another, including interpreters and
compilers.
Functionality - Answers A compiler translates high-level code to machine code; a translator can convert
between various languages/formats.
Execution - Answers Compilers produce standalone executables; translators may not create an
executable but convert code for runtime.
Speed - Answers Compiled code runs faster as it is pre-translated; translated code may run slower if
interpreted.
When to use a compiler - Answers For optimized performance, producing executable files, or developing
large-scale projects.
