- More human like language. - Less direct interaction with hardware, still possible with specifically designed library. - Armed with tons of ready to use extension, module or library, even framework. - High level languages were designed for rapid development, less time spent, less code written. - Does not impose as much restrictions as data type, code block brackets, or semicolon. Just my opinion : )

A high level programming language is basically a language who's syntax tries to allow for it to be read easier by humans. Some of the low level languages, such as Assembly, are quite difficult to understand at a first glance and can get really difficult to understand. This makes its codes much harder to read for the human writing the code and anyone else reading it. High level languages, such as Python or C, have syntax which is much easier to understand by including more understandable keywords, symbols, and methods for writing their codes.
