                     The programs written in a high-level language must be translated into machine language by using a
                     translator called compiler or interpreter.

                                          3 × 2 = 6                                 Machine Code (0110)

                                A  computer  language is the  medium by  which  instructions  are transmitted to the  computer to
                              perform a specific task.
                               Computer Languages are classified into Low Level Languages and High Level Languages.
                                A language translator is a software that converts a high-level  language  program into  a machine
                              language.
                               The three types of Translators are: Assembler, Compiler and Interpreter.
