Low Level Language

Low level languages have the advantage that they can be written easily to take advantage of any distinctive features in the architecture of the central processing unit (CPU), which is the "brain" of a computer. Thus, a program written in a low-level language can be extremely efficient, making optimum use of both computer memory and processing time.

  • However, to write a high-level program, it takes a substantial amount of time as well as clear understanding of the inner workings of the processor itself.
  • Therefore, low-level programming is typically used only for very small programs or for segments of code that are highly critical and must run as efficiently as possible.Low language is considered to be closer to the computer.
