| 1. | A high level language is ideally an abstraction independent of particular implementations.
|
| 2. | To overcome this disadvantage, several high level languages, including C, came up.
|
| 3. | Hence high level languages are preferred for embedded systems programming.
|
| 4. | The first high level language to provide such a bootstrap was NELIAC in 1958.
|
| 5. | While not a high level language, it is not as low level as assembly language.
|
| 6. | Its main use is to introduce students to high level languages through use of this hybrid language.
|
| 7. | Another reason to use assembler is that not all operating system functions can be accessed in high level languages.
|
| 8. | These functions can be controlled through some programming in either low or high level languages such as Assembly or C.
|
| 9. | It is therefore so construed as to include machine code, very high level languages and executable graphical representations of systems.
|
| 10. | The BASIC interpreter was not complete and crashed several times, but Roberts had a high level language for his computer.
