}}
In [[computer science]], a '''high-level programming language''' is a [[programming language]] with strong [[Abstraction (computer science)|abstraction]] from the details of the [[computer]]. In contrast to [[low-level programming language]]s, it may use [[natural language]] ''elements'', be easier to use, or may automate (or even hide entirely) significant areas of computing systems (e.g. [[memory management]]), making the process of developing a program simpler and more understandable than when using a lower-level language. The amount of abstraction provided defines how "high-level" a programming language is.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070826224349/http://www.ittc.ku.edu/hybridthreads/glossary/index.php HThreads - RD Glossary<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
