Answer 1

Dennis Ritchie

Question 2

Why can’t computers understand Plain English?

Answer 2

PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES are a tool that allow the computer to do specific operation and programmers use programming languages so that they can specify exactly what they want the computer to do

Question 11

Uses a basic set of symbols to represent the 0s and 1s of machine code. Programming language that is specific to a particular computer architecture or microprocessor. It consists of mnemonic codes and symbols that represent the individual machine instructions of the target CPU. used when a programmer needs precise control over the computer’s hardware, such as in embedded systems or operating system development.

Answer 13

Structured programming languages

Question 14

Tells the computer what to do rather than how to do it. Emphasizes expressing the desired result or goal, and the language’s interpreter or compiler figures out how to achieve that goal.

Answer 14

Nonprocedural languages (Declarative Languages)

Question 15
