fourth-generation language (4GL)
- fourth-generation language (4GL)
-
4GLs are closer to human language than other high-level languages and are accessible to people without formal training as programmers. They allow multiple common operations to be performed with a single programmer-entered command. They are intended to be easier for users than machine languages (
first-generation), assembly languages (
second-generation), and older high-level languages (third-generation).
