- C is called a high level, compiler language. The aim of any high level computer language is to provide an easy and natural way of giving a programme of instructions to a computer (a computer program). The language of the raw computer is a stream of numbers called machine code. As you might expect, the action which results from a single machine code instruction is very primitive and many thousands of them are required to make a program which does anything substantial. It is therefore the job of a high level language to provide a new set of black box instructions, which can be given to the computer without us needing to see what happens inside them - and it is the job of a compiler to fill in the details of these "black boxes" so that the final product is a sequence of instructions in the language of the computer.
