Explanation of Solution

Features in first high-level programming language:

The first high level language which we learned was C++. A high level language is more close to humans and is not designed specifically for the machine. High level languages provide important features such as abstraction, exception handling and others.

  • A programming language can be implemented either using a compiler, a pure interpreter or a hybrid implementation of both interpreter and compiler.
  • C++ is more of a compiled language and that is one of the reasons of its efficiency. But some of the programming environments also provide interpreted form of the code for easier debugging.

Compiled languages are usually faster during execution.

  • Firstly, the program is passed to lexical analyzer which gathers different lexemes like keywords, punctuations and others of the code.
  • This information is then passed to syntactic analyzer which makes parse trees out of this information...

What are the similarities and differences between massively parallel processing systems and grid computing. with references
Modular Program Structure. Analysis of Structured Programming Examples. Ways to Reduce Coupling. Based on the given problem, create an algorithm and a block diagram, and write the program code: Function: y=xsin⁡x Interval: [0,π] Requirements: Create a graph of the function. Show the coordinates (x and y). Choose your own scale and show it in the block diagram. Create a block diagram based on the algorithm. Write the program code in Python. Requirements: Each step in the block diagram must be clearly shown. The graph of the function must be drawn and saved (in PNG format). Write the code in a modular way (functions and the main part should be separate). Please explain and describe the results in detail.
