Some languages are closer to, “you need tell the computer what to do using only 1’s and 0’s, since computers only understand 1’s and 0’s.” This is more difficult and confusing (and for a sizable program, essentially impossible), but the upside is you can be very precise in what you are doing.
Other languages are closer to, “write the code in English, the computer can translate English into 1’s and 0’s.” The downside here is that you can’t get super precise in what you are doing. The upside is that you can write a program in less time using this method.
