The Fundamentals of C# Part 1: Programming Languages

The document discusses programming languages, compilers, and Visual Studio. It explains that programming languages can be low-level or high-level, with low-level languages being closer to machine language and harder for humans to read, while high-level languages are easier for humans but slower. It describes compilers as software that translates source code into another language like machine code. It also introduces Visual Studio as an integrated development environment for coding in C#.

The Compiler

A compiler is computer software that transforms computer code written in one


programming language (the source language) into another computer language
(the target language). Compilers are a type of translator
The Compiler

Compiler Interpreter

• Compiled Languages: C++, C#,Swift, TypeScript • Interpreted Languages: JavaScript, Python, PHP

• Takes an entire program as input
 • Takes a single line of code as input



• Executes faster
 • Executes slower

• Requires more memory
 • Requires less memory

• Not cross-platform
 • Cross-platform
