Abstract

A business microcomputer user who intends to buy rather than write application packages needs to know virtually nothing of this topic and this whole chapter may be skipped on first reading. The vast majority of application programs are written in high level languages (see Chapter 7) and the problems of language selection for application programs are described in Chapter 10. Programming in low level languages is thus the exception rather than the rule.
