/alx-higher_level_programming

A high-level language is a programming language designed to simplify computer programming. It is "high-level" since it is several steps removed from the actual code run on a computer's processor. High-level source code contains easy-to-read syntax that is later converted into a low-level language, which can be recognized and run by a specific CPU.

Primary LanguagePython

Higher-level programming - Python

Module of High-level programming and Python, carried out during Full Stack Software Engineering studies at Alx School.
