'''Short Code''' was one of the first higher-level languages ever developed for an [[electronic computer]].<ref>Sebesta, W.S Concepts of Programming languages. 2006;M6 14:18 pp.44. {{ISBN |0-321-33025-0}}</ref> Unlike [[machine code]], Short Code statements represented mathematic expressions rather than a machine instruction. Also known as an automatic programming, the source code was not compiled but executed through an interpreter to simplify the programming process; the execution time was much slower though.<ref>Sebesta, W.S Concepts of Programming languages. 11E; Chapter 2, pp.39. {{ISBN |978-0133943023}}</ref>
