Programming and Scripting

πŸ‘‹ Hey, welcome back to GetToKnow 4u!

In this video we’re covering Lesson 5.4 β€” Intro to Programming Languages! πŸ’»βš™οΈ Did you know programming languages didn’t start with Python or Java? They evolved over 5 generations β€” from raw binary all the way to natural language AI systems. This lesson walks through every generation, explains the difference between compiled and interpreted languages, and breaks down low-level vs high-level languages!

πŸ”΅ 5 Generations of Programming Languages
β†’ 1GL β€” Machine Language: binary 0s & 1s, direct hardware instructions
β†’ 2GL β€” Assembly Language: MOV, ADD, JMP opcodes & mnemonics
β†’ 3GL β€” High-Level Languages: Python, Java, C++ & human-readable syntax
β†’ 4GL β€” Very High-Level: SQL, MATLAB, R β€” closer to natural language
β†’ 5GL β€” Natural Language / AI: Prolog, constraint-based programming

🟠 Compiled vs Interpreted Languages
β†’ Compiled β€” translated all at once before running (C, C++)
β†’ Interpreted β€” translated line-by-line at runtime (Python, JavaScript)
β†’ Pros, cons & real-world use cases of each

🟒 Low-Level vs High-Level Languages
β†’ Low-level β€” close to hardware, fast but complex
β†’ High-level β€” human-readable, easier but abstracted
β†’ When and why each type is used
