Types of Programming Languages:
- Low-Level Languages:
- Machine Language: Directly executed by the computer’s CPU; written in binary (0s and 1s).
- Assembly Language: Uses symbolic representations of machine instructions, requiring an assembler to convert to machine code.
- High-Level Languages:
- Easier for humans to read and write; translated to machine code by compilers or interpreters.
- Examples: Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, Ruby.
- Scripting Languages:
- Designed for automating tasks within other software.
- Examples: Python, JavaScript, Perl.
- Markup and Query Languages:
- Focused on structuring and managing data rather than performing computations.
- Examples: HTML, XML, SQL.
- Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs):
- Tailored for specific applications or domains.
- Examples: MATLAB (for mathematical computations), R (for data analysis).
- Object-Oriented Languages:
- Focus on objects (data structures containing data and methods).
- Examples: Java, C++, Python.
- Functional Languages:
- Emphasize mathematical functions and immutability.
- Examples: Haskell, Scala.
