Programming Languages
- "Low-level" assembly languages,
- "High-level" languages, roughly:
- Compiled languages are translated into machine code through compilation. Excellent performance. C, C++, Fortran.
- Pseudo code languages use both compilation and interpretation. Python, Perl, Java.
- Interpreted languages depend on an interpreter program that translate them on the fly. The source has to be re-interpreted each time the code is executed.
