Computer language
A computer language is a language used by, or in association with, computers. Often, the term is used synonymously with programming language, but in general a computer language need not be a programming language. For example, markup languages like HTML are generally not held to be programming languages, but they are computer languages.
In general, as with any other kind of language, a computer language arises wherever there is a need to communicate some information from one entity to another. Programming languages foster the communication of programs among programmers and computers; markup languages communicate the formatting or structure of documents among humans and computers; and so on.
Computer languages can be classified into several kinds, including but not limited to the following:
