A programming language is one which has
support for
- Data Structures (so we can represent our problem)
- Control structures (so we can solve our problem)
The better the support for both the above the
higher the level of the language.
- Assembly Language
- High Level Language (Fortran, C, Java, ...)
Why can't we program in natural language?
