1. Category

The type of language are designed to address specific needs and use cases, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in software development, web design, data manipulation, or hardware design.

1.1. Programming Languages

Used to write software programs that control the behavior of a machine or express algorithms.

1.1.1. Low-Level Languages

1.1.2. Machine Language

Binary code that the computer's CPU can execute directly.

1.1.3. Assembly Language

Uses mnemonics and symbols to represent machine-level instructions, which are then converted to machine code by an assembler.

Lisp, Haskell, Erlang.

1.1.8. Scripting Languages

JavaScript, Perl, Ruby.

1.1.9. Logic Programming Languages

Prolog.

1.2. Markup Languages

Used to annotate documents in a way that is syntactically distinguishable from the text.
