Low Level Language
A low level language is one which more accurately represents the architecture it is implemented on.
Usually the term low-level is used to describe an assembly language, where one line of code is likely to be one machine instruction (or opcode).
Low level languages may give direct access to registers, or the stack and to the machine instructions themselves to allow for low-level optimization by the programmer, which may not be possible in
high level languages.
