3.   Anita wants to develop an expert system for diagnosing medical conditions. She needs a programming
                           language that offers visual tools and is easy to use. Which generation of programming language would
                           you suggest to her? Mention the names of any three languages of that generation.



                        4.  Write any two disadvantages of high-level programming languages.







                        5.  What do you mean by a language translator?

                         1.   In a certain code language, “987” is written as “cold chilled drink”, “965” is written as “extreme cold
                           weather” and “543” is written as “weather and season”. Which digit represents “extreme”?

                        2.   Surf the Internet and find more information about compiler and interpreter.
                        3.   Competency-based/Application-based questions:

                            a.   John is working on his computer project and prefers a language  translator that
                              translates and executes one statement at a time, displaying errors one line at a time.
                              Which language translator will you suggest to him?

                            b.   Jiya's teacher assigns a task to her to develop a program that analyses the data of all the students
                              in  her  class. She  has  very less  knowledge  of  programming  but  wants  to  develop  the  program
                              quickly. Which generation of programming language would be most suitable for her to use?

                   Surf the Internet to develop a comparative study on different language translators that may or may not
                   be programming language based. Showcase your findings in the form of a Word project or a Power Point
                   presentation.





                 For The Teacher
                    Introduce the concept of programming.
                    Explain what is a code.
                    Explain differences between language translators.
