a high level programming language is something that human beings can easily understand. To me, C is the lowest level of a high level programming language. others are C++, Java, C#, Ruby, Python and the list goes on.....

High Level language means a language more understandable for humans and more far from machine code. They are used mainly in where managing machine resources is not vital. Given its nature can be used for scripts, multiplataform environment... In the other hand we have languages of Low level (Assembly is a good example), C is between High and Low levels. When you need to deal with machine resources, memory is very limit they are the needed language for these cases. Portability is less, one example of the use of them are to code drivers
