Programming Language

Programming Language

A programming language is an artificial language designed to express computations that can be performed by a machine, particularly a computer. Programming is a very natural and intuitive concept. A program is nothing more than a series of statements written in a specific language. Programs are everywhere, and even the technophobes of the world use programs every day. Driving directions, cooking recipes, football plays, and DNA are all types of programs.
