Lower Order Languages: Programming languages that are closer to machine code or assembly language than high-level languages. They offer limited abstraction from hardware, providing greater control over memory and processors, making them suitable for tasks requiring direct hardware manipulation or high performance. Examples include assembly language and machine language, which involve instructions directly executed by the CPU. These languages can be more challenging to write and maintain but offer efficiency crucial for specific low-level programming tasks.
