1. Which programming language do you prefer: low level or high level? Why?

- There’s a huge difference between Low-Level Programming (LLLs) and High-

Level Programming (HLLs), especially when it comes to their Functionalities,
Efficiency, Interpretation of the user, etc. Low-Level Programming (LLLs) is
more complex to understand for human comprehension, and it is the
opposite for machines and computers. On the other hand, High-Level
Programming (HLLs) is the exact opposite of Low-Level Programming (LLLs);
it is user-friendly, portable, and can be maintained and debugged easily.
They may both sound exactly the opposite, but what’s important is that
they have the same purpose and can be useful to any programmers out
there.

As for the given question, which one do I prefer the most? Is it Low-level or
High-level Programming? In fact, I would love to learn and expand my
knowledge of both levels and methods of programming, since it is crucial
for any aspiring programmer to learn every aspect of computers and
machines. When I was introduced to the world of programming, High-Level
Programming (HLLs) was already at the top of the curriculum when it
comes to any programming lessons, thus I became more familiar with it and
that’s the sole reason why I also prefer High-Level Programming (HLLs) over
Low-Level Programming (LLLs). High-Level Programming (HLLs) can be a
little bit overwhelming for some beginners tho, but when you already
understand the methods and logic behind those baffling codes, then you
are good to go to learn more without any pressure and confusion. Since
high-level programming is a user-friendly one, it is more in demand
nowadays and continuously improving, especially since it is used by a
various of applications and software that most people are using nowadays.
High-Level Programming is also a good way to spread the knowledge of
computer languages to naive users, because I believe that people should
know at least the basics of programming since technology and
modernization are already part of our every day’s doing and understanding
its functions will be a huge advantage for them. By contrast, I personally
prefer High-Level Programming (HLLs) over Low-Level Programming (LLLs),
but if I ever get a chance to learn more about Low-Level Programming
(LLLs) and be comfortable with it, then who knows, I might change my
mind.
