hello,
PLC is programmable logic controller that is used for controlling machinery or process
which programming language is used for PLC and how they work
how they work throw the instructions of programming language
thanks..............
 
hopfully this is not a homework;)

The answer needs some additional information from you, like the name of the PLC you intended to program since each Brand will use different software of their own.

PLC's most commonly use ladder language, kindof a graphical type language where the software 'looks' like a schematic diagram, some older plc's use statement but you dont want to get into that.
More complex plc's can be programmed in C, or should I say you can write function blocks in C and pass variables to and from it.

Siemens make one called a 'logo', this would be the one I'd reccomend to learn on.
