high-level language

RU: язык высокого уровня

A programming language that abstracts over the details of a specific CPU — its registers, instruction set, and memory layout. One statement in a high-level language typically compiles to many machine instructions. High-level languages are portable: the same source file can be compiled for x86-64, ARM, or RISC-V without changes. Examples: C, Python, JavaScript, Java, Rust.
