(a) Machine language: It is a low level programming language which allows the programmer to write program instructions using binary digits of 0's (zeros and 1's (ones). It is a program in which codes are already written in machine readable format and therefore do not need translation.
(b) Assembly language: It is a low level programming language that allows the programmer to write program instructions using a set of symbolic operation codes called mnemonics.
