high-level language
     
        hll a programming language which provides some level of
        abstraction above assembly language.  these normally use
        statements consisting of english-like keywords such as "for",
        "print" or "goto", where each statement corresponds to several
        machine language instructions.  it is much easier to program
        in a high-level language than in assembly language though
        the efficiency of execution depends on how good the compiler
        or interpreter is at optimising the program.
     
        rarely, the variants "vhll" and "mll" are found.
