Advantages of High-Level-Languages

High-level languages have several advantages over low level
languages. Some of the important advantages are;
   

1) Easy to Learn:

The instructions written in high-level languages are
similar to the plain English instructions. This makes the high-
level languages easy to learn and use. High level languages 
are basically used for fast development. So it is much easier 
than a low level language. So if you want to make applications 
faster then definately go with a higher level language. 

2) Machine Independent:

A program written in a high-level language can be used
on any computer system for which the compiler of the language 
is available.

3) Shorter Programs:

The high-level language programs are shorter than the 
programs written in machine languages. A single instruction 
written in a high-level language translates into several machine
language instructions. High level languages are also easier 
to code in and don't require as much code as a low 
level programmer. High level languages are basically used for 
fast development. So it is much easier than a low level language.

4) Problem Oriented Languages:

The high-level languages are problem-oriented languages.
These are designed to solve problems on the computer system. 
For example, a business oriented language uses business term
and the language for scientists and engineering calculations
uses scientific terms. With high level languages you only 
control part of your program and the compiler or 
computer language handles the rest for you. 

5) Easier To Understand:

The program instructions in high-level languages are
similar to the plain English statements. This makes the program
easy to understand. Anyone who is familar with the computer
languages can easily understand the logic of the program written 
in a high-level languages.

6) Less Time Needed:

There are several programmers who can works on one 
program simultaneously. Thus a program can developed quickly. 
And there is no less time can be required.
