Easy to learn
High-level languages are closer to human languages and far from the computer
hardware. These are English-like languages do easy to understand and learn.
Easy Error Detection
High-level Languages are easy to read, modify, and edit. It makes it easy to
find errors in programs written in high-level languages.
Standardized Syntax
The syntax of high-level languages is standardized. These
languages describe a well-defined way of writing programs. Different
organizations work together to determine the standard syntax of these
languages. An important organization is
American National Standard Institue also known as ANSI.
Deep hardware knowledge is not required
These languages do not require deep knowledge of hardware or machine
architecture. A programmer can write efficient programs without deep knowledge
of hardware, He can concentrate on solving the problem rather than concerning
the human-machine interactions.
Machine Independence
High-level languages provide machine independence. It means that programs
written in a high-level language can be executed on different types of
computers. For Example, A program written in C language can be executed in
Intel processors as well as Motorola Processors.
More Programmers
Programming in a low-level language is very difficult. But high-level
languages are easy to learn. It encourages more people to learn these
languages. So many programmers of high-level languages are available for
work.
Shorter Programs
Programs written in high-level languages are shorter than low-level languages.
One instruction of high-level language is equivalent to many instructions of a
low-level language.
