1. Introduction to Programming Languages

A programming language is used to communicate with a computer. Since computers understand only binary (0s and 1s), programming languages help humans interact with them more easily.

Types of Programming Languages

1. Low-Level Languages
   • Machine Language (Binary: 0, 1)
   • Assembly Language (Uses mnemonics & opcodes)
2. High-Level Languages
   • Compiled Languages (C, C++)
   • Interpreted Languages (JavaScript, Python)

2. C++ Language Overview

• Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at AT&T Bell Labs in 1979.
• Originally called "C with Classes", renamed to C++ in 1983.
• Supports both procedural and object-oriented paradigms (Hybrid Language).
