The correct answer is Application Language.
- Application Language is the other name of functional language.
Key Points
- Functional languages have a mathematical style.
- A functional program is constructed by applying functions to arguments.
- Functional languages, such as LISP, ML, and Haskell, are used as research tools in language development, automated mathematical theorem provers, and in commercial projects.
- Other high-level languages are called functional languages.
- The best-known functional language of this type is LISP (List Processing).
Additional Information
- Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers.
- It is read by the computer's central processing unit (CPU), is composed of digital binary numbers and looks like a very long sequence of zeros and ones.
- Each CPU has its own specific machine language.
- The processor reads and handles instructions, which tell the CPU to perform a simple task. Instructions are comprised of a certain number of bits.
- A high-level language is a programming language designed to simplify computer programming.
- It is "high-level" since it is several steps removed from the actual code run on a computer's processor.
- High-level source code contains easy-to-read syntax that is later converted into a low-level language, which can be recognized and run by a specific CPU.
- A compiler is a language translator that can convert high-level language programs into machine language in one go.
- An assembly language is a low-level programming language in which there is a very strong correspondence between the program's statements and the architecture's machine code instructions.
