When working in a professional IT setting, you are assigned to work on a project that requires the program to run with high performance and to be distributable in a binary form. Which type of programming language would be most suitable for this task?
Compiled programming languages are most suitable for creating high-performance applications that can be distributed as binary executables. A compiler translates the source code into machine code ahead of time, so the resulting program runs directly on the CPU without the overhead of line-by-line interpretation. This pre-compiled machine code typically executes faster than code processed by an interpreter, making compiled languages ideal for standalone software that prioritizes speed and efficient resource use.
