High-level programming language
From Wiki @ Karl Jones dot com
In computer science, a high-level programming language is a programming language with strong abstraction from the details of the computer.
In comparison to low-level programming languages, it may use natural language elements, be easier to use, or may automate (or even hide entirely) significant areas of computing systems (e.g. memory management), making the process of developing a program simpler and more understandable relative to a lower-level language.
The amount of abstraction provided defines how "high-level" a programming language is.
