💻🧠 Programming language generations (1GL → 5GL)

🔸 Context (for new developers)

▪️ This is a learning model about abstraction levels 📚

▪️ It’s not a “best language” list 🛠️

▪️ These generations coexist in real systems 🧩

🔸 TLDR

▪️ Each “generation” adds abstraction—moving from hardware details ➡️ problem descriptions ✨

🔸 Takeaways

▪️ 1GL/2GL = max control (but max effort) ⚙️

▪️ 3GL = the everyday toolbox for most software 🧰

▪️ 4GL = declare intent in a domain (data/reports/analytics) 📊

▪️ 5GL = describe goals/constraints; let the system solve 🤖

▪️ Most products mix multiple layers—that’s normal 🔁

🔸 Question

▪️ Which language made “abstraction” finally click for you? 💬
