Olivia thinks that her first code is quite good and that it runs well. She is surprised to learn that the computer, however, is not able to understand the language her code is written in without first translating it. What is the only language that a computer can understand without needing to be translated?

Elsa is programming a robot to move from her front door to her room . The robot will not be remote controlled and does not have any sensors to "see" its environment. She must program the robot with clear movements that start at her front door, then move down the hall, then turn into her room, and finally end. Which term describes this program?

Haruto is a high school student that has never taken a programming course. He goes to a counselor and inquires about taking a class to learn to code. He wants a programming language that is easy to learn , that contain English words and phrases, as well as easily recognized symbols. The counselor recommends a JavaScript course. Haruto plans on taking this course, which is an example of what type of programming language?

The robotics team has created a solid design that can physically accomplish all of their tasks for competition. Now they must create the program that will control the robot. The code could be massive, and be difficult for them to write and for the computer to execute. They decide to break problems into smaller, logical problem to make them easier to execute. Which type of programming is this?
