• Assembly, Python, C++

• Machine code, Java, Python

• Python, Java, JavaScript

What is the main difference highlighted between high-level and low-level languages?

• Low-level run only on web browsers

• High-level never need a compiler

• Low-level are created by students

• High-level are easier to read and write

A programmer needs direct control over hardware for a small memory buffer. Which language choice best fits this task?

• Assembly language for precise hardware control

• Java for cross-platform phone apps

• JavaScript for styling web pages

• Python for quick user interface design

Why might programmers choose different languages for different tasks?

• Only low-level languages can make apps

• All languages are identical in features

• Different languages suit different needs

• Languages are chosen randomly by habit

Which statement best describes high-level programming languages?

• Closer to English, easier to read

• Directly control CPU registers

• Require manual memory allocation

• Specific to one processor model

What is a common advantage of low-level languages?

• Fast execution of programs

• Easier to learn syntax

• Portable across platforms

• More abstract data types

Which task is typically easier when using a high-level language?

• Writing programs quickly

• Accessing device firmware

• Optimizing instruction cycles

• Managing hardware interrupts

Low-level languages are often used when an application requires what?

• Special hardware access

• Cross-platform portability

• Built-in garbage collection

• High-level libraries

Which phrase matches the nature of high-level language statements?

• Hard to maintain

• Bound to one chipset

• Easier to understand

• Written in binary

What does “small memory footprint” refer to in low-level languages?

• Data types are always bigger

• Programs require larger RAM

• Code is more verbose

• Programs use less memory
