What is a potential drawback of using high-level programming languages?
High-level languages provide a wider range of built-in functionalities.
High-level languages are often more efficient than low-level languages.
High-level languages can sometimes have slower execution speeds due to the abstraction layer.
High-level languages require a deeper understanding of computer architecture.
ব্যাখ্যা
High-level programming languages provide abstraction from the hardware, which simplifies development but can introduce overhead. This abstraction layer can lead to slower execution speeds compared to low-level programming languages that interact more directly with the hardware.
