ACTIVITY 1: Introduction of Programming Language: Duration: 2 Hours Learning Outcomes

This document provides an overview of an introductory programming language activity. It includes 3 activities that help students: [1] identify programming language generations based on images; [2] distinguish between language translators like compilers and assemblers; and [3] determine programming language applications in fields like medical, education, and agriculture through group discussions and examples. The overall goal is for students to better understand programming languages, their evolution, and real-world uses.

NAME: MUHAMMAD SAIFUL AZWAR BIN TALIB

MATRIC NUMBER: 32DDT20F2026

ACTIVITY 1: Introduction of Programming Language


Duration: 2 Hours

Learning Outcomes
This Tutorial encompasses activities 1A, 1B and 1C.

By the end of this tutorial session, you should be able to:


1. Differentiate the various categories of programming languages.
2. Explain the language translators.
3. Relate the programming languages application in real life.

Activity 1A
Activity Outcome: Identify the programming language generation based on the figures given.

Look carefully at the images given. The images uniquely represent each programming
language generation that you have learned. Can you identify and match the programming
language generation correctly? Give ONE (1) more feature that you can recall on each
generation that you have identified.

Features

A collection of binary numbers understood by a


computer.

Features

Translation to machine language is performed


using compiler or interpreter.

Features

Also known as symbolic language because it


uses mnemonic code.

Activity 1B
Activity Outcome: Distinguish between the various language translators.

Determine the language translator, X and Y in Figure 1.1 and state TWO (2) of their
advantages and disadvantages.

X Y

Figure 1.1

X Compiler
Programmes can be clearer, better structured.
Advantages It is easy to use pre-written functions, which may be quite
complicated.
Executable code may be longer (since it is not always optimised
for the hardware on which it executes), and less efficient.
Disadvantages
Some "bugs" are harder to find, because you do not know
exactly how the compiler works.

Y Assembler
It allows complex jobs to run in a simple way
Advantages
It is memory efficient, as it requies less memory
Hard to write code
Disadvantages
Project takes longer and costs more (Cheops’s Law)

Activity 1C
Activity Outcome: Determine programming languages application in real life.
