Across

1. A programming language that is closer to human language and is easier to understand and use compared to low-level languages.

2. The process of improving the efficiency and performance of the generated machine code.

3. A programming language that is closer to machine language and is harder to understand and use compared to high-level languages.

4. A program that translates assembly language code into machine code.

5. The process of analyzing the meaning of the source code and checking for semantic errors.

6. The process of simplifying complex systems by hiding unnecessary details in high-level languages.

7. A low-level programming language that uses mnemonics to represent machine instructions.

8. A program that converts code from one programming language to another without necessarily changing the underlying logic.

9. The ability of a program written in a high-level language to run on different computer systems without modification.

10. The lowest-level programming language consisting of binary code that can be directly executed by a computer's CPU.

11. The process of analyzing the grammar of the source code to determine its syntactic structure.

Down

12. A program that directly executes high-level language code without prior translation into machine code.

13. The process of producing executable machine code or intermediate code from the analyzed source code.

14. The process of breaking down the source code into a sequence of lexemes (tokens) that can be processed by the compiler or interpreter.

15. The quality of code written in a high-level language that is easy to understand and maintain.

16. The measure of how well a program written in a low-level language utilizes computer resources.
