Assertion (A): BASIC, Java, Python, etc. are some popular high level languages.

Reason (R): The instructions written in high level languages need language translators to be understood by the system.

Based on the above discussion, choose an appropriate statement from the options given below:

  1. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  2. Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not a correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  3. Assertion (A) is true and Reason (R) is false.
  4. Assertion (A) is false and Reason (R) is true.

Answer

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is a correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Reason — High-level languages like BASIC, Java, and Python allow programmers to write code in a human-readable format. However, computers can only understand machine language (binary code). Therefore, instructions written in high-level languages require language translators, such as compilers or interpreters, to convert them into machine code that the system can execute.
