1) Platform Dependencies

First, you should know about the platform, here platform means Computer Hardware (Computer configuration).

Low Level programming languages are platform dependent that means programs written in Low Level language can run on the same hardware with same configuration, you cannot run them on hardware that has different configuration.

High Level programming languages are platform independent that means programs written in High Level language can run on different hardware with different configuration.

Remember: High Level programming languages are platform independent that doesn’t mean they are operating system independent. System hardware configuration may be different but Operating systems should be same.

2) Speed

Low Level language programs are faster than High Level language programs as they do not need to convert.

They have less number of syntaxes, functions, keywords, class libraries.

3) Easiness

Low Level language programs are not as easy as High Level language. There are only two Low Level programming languages Binary and Assembly. Binary has only 0’s, 1’s, while Assembly has some difficult type symbols which are knows as mnemonics.

But, the High Level languages programs are easy to write, read, modify and understand.

4) Performance

Since, Low Level Languages programs are faster, so performance of Low Level languages programs are better than the High Level languages programs.

5) Translation

Low Level language Binary does not need translation as Binary codes are Machine codes and computer understands them without any translations.

Assembly needs an Assembler to translate an Assembly program to its equivalent Binary/Machine Code.

High Level Languages are translated by the compilers or interpreters; sometimes (in case of some programming languages) both are required to get the Object/Binary file.

6) Flexibilities

High Level languages are flexible to read, edit, debug, understand etc but Low Level Languages are not so easy to handle.

High Level languages have huge libraries with a rich set of Data types, keywords, functions etc so these languages are really good to develop an application with many great features using less effort and resource.

7) Support

Low Level languages have less support than High Level Languages. There may be lesser number of professionals (community) in support of Low Level languages as comparisons to High Level Language support.

The difference between the two is that the high-level language is easier to read than that of the low-level language.

The simple way to explain the difference between high and low level languages is that high level language is easir for the human to read using English latters and some symbols but low level language  is close to computer language (0,1).

High-level programming Languages are close to natural language and far from Machine or robotic language.

The big difference between low-level and high-level languages is how the codeis compiled into the binary form. Compiler used for compiling Assembly code is named assembler and as programmers say, the code written is assembled into binary form, not compiled

The difference between high level programming languages is understand human, its so easy like english letter or sambol, but lower level languager is not understand human because is so difficult to understand by human like constist (0.1). Lower level language other name is mechnie language.

the low level :

  1. written in low level languge like assemply .
  2. can run only wih the same hardware with the same configuration .
  3. it has less number of syntaxes , functions ,keywords and class libraries .

 the high level :

  1. it is generations < it is more flexible  and has more syntaxes ,functions   and class and libraries .
  2. it slow than low level because it should convert to the binary code by the used machine .
  3. it is like c++ , java , python

Low-level and High-level Programming Languages

Low-level Programming Languages

A low-level programming language is a computer language with minimal programming techniques that closely resemble machine instructions. The language architecture deals with hardware components and associated constraints in most instances; meaning it does not cover up the operational semantics of the computer. In hardware operations, low-level language primary functions include operations, management, and manipulation of the computer hardware and the associated components . Another aspect of low-level programming language is that the programs are executable upon formulations as there is no need for translations or interpretations of the program instructions.

Common examples of low-level programming languages include assembly language and machine language. The assembly language primarily commands the computer on what to do, with the machine codes in the form of words instead of binaries and numbers . It has direct usage in hardware manipulation, addressing vital performance issues, and accessing specialized processor instructions. On the other hand, the machine language, also famously referred to as the elemental computer language, is usually formulated in binaries that the CPU reads. These codings are generally subject to conversion for easier human understanding and manipulation because the computer are able to understand them in the primary form.

High-level Programming Languages

A high-level programming language (HLL) finds wide usage in assisting a programmer in formulating programs for specified usage. It is primarily connected to the architectural layout of computer hardware. It also employs abstractions and concepts with fundamental language-based elements more on program logic, such as register utilization and memory addressing.

Abstract difference of these two is, High level language is independent of particular type of Computer and are easy to write, read and maintain, they are more near to a human understanding.

While Low level languages are dependent to the platform they are created for and are difficult to read for humans, low level languages are easy to understand only for compilers.

High level languages are written in a form that is close to our human language, enabling to programmer to just focus on the problem being solved.Examples include: C++, Java, Pascal, Python, Visual Basic.

Low level languages are used to write programs that relate to the specific architecture and hardware of a particular type of computer. Examples. Assembly Languages
