First Programming Languages: CrashCourse Computer Science #11

What is the purpose of an assembler in programming?

• To store and feed programs into the computer

• To execute binary machine code instructions

• To translate high-level programming languages into assembly language

• To convert assembly language instructions into machine code

Which programming language was designed by Grace Hopper?

• A-0

• FORTRAN

• COBOL

• ALGOL

What is the benefit of using high-level programming languages?

• They are CPU specific and provide faster execution

• They allow direct manipulation of registers and memory locations

• They directly map to machine instructions for better performance

• They abstract away low-level complexity and make programming easier

Which programming language is commonly used for web browser development?

• Objective-C

• Java

• C++

• Python

What is the ultimate goal of programming languages?

• To use plain ol' English for programming

• To create intelligent systems that execute commands

• To replace assembly and machine code with higher-level languages

• To make programming more powerful and accessible
