We can't even go beyond the third generation. The first generation languages are all the native machine code languages. The second generation languages are the low-level symbolic languages such as assembly language. The third generation languages are all the high-level symbolic languages, such as C, C++, Java, Pascal, Cobol and so on. There are no fourth generation languages.

The term "fourth generation" was first used by marketing types to make their third generation languages seem superior to other third generation languages, regardless of what features they actually provided. While there have been several attempts to re-classify third-generation languages, there is no standardised convention and thus no way to compare languages objectively by generation alone. Languages are best classified by the paradigms they support (procedural, structured, object-oriented, functional, logical and so on) and/or the domains they operate within (general purpose programming, Artificial Intelligence programming, and so on).

What are the advantages of fifth generation of language?

The major advantages of fifth generation programming languages are that these languages are improved from fourth generation languages. It is also important to note that classification of programming languages in generations beyond the second generation is complete nonsense and nothing but a marketing hype; programming languages don't evolve in a linear succession, or one in the shape of a balanced tree, where each generation has common attributes and improvements over the previous generation.


How do you create a program in the internet?

First you learn a programming language, then you start writing. That answer is both completely correct and completely useless, because the question is really far beyond the scope of what we can explain here.


What are the disadvantages of fifth generation of language?

The major disadvantage of fifth generation programming languages is that these languages won't be as good as sixth generation languages. It is also important to note that classification of programming languages in generations beyond the second generation is complete nonsense and nothing but a marketing hype; programming languages don't evolve in a linear succession, or one in the shape of a balanced tree, where each generation has common attributes and improvements over the previous generation.


What are the steps to create a permanent set in a programming language?

To create a permanent set in a programming language, you typically need to declare the set, initialize it with values, and ensure that the set is stored in a way that persists beyond the current program execution. This may involve using data structures like arrays or databases to store the set elements permanently.

What is the language beyond the dictionary definition?

The language beyond the dictionary definition refers to the nuances, connotations, and cultural or contextual meanings that words may carry beyond their basic definitions. It often involves understanding the subtleties of language usage, including tone, intent, and implied meanings that go beyond literal interpretations. This deeper level of language comprehension is essential for effective communication and interpretation in various contexts.
