Chapter 2 Computer programming often shortened to programming‚ scripting‚ or coding is the process of designing‚ writing‚ testing‚ debugging‚ and maintaining the source code of computer programs. This source code is written in one or more programming languages (such as Java‚ C++‚ C#‚ Python‚ etc.). The purpose of programming is to create a set of instructions that computers use to perform specific operations or to exhibit desired behaviors. The process of writing source code often requires expertise

problem solving has pushed the development of newer programming languages. The evolution of programming languages is typically discussed in terms of generation of languages. The first generation of Programming languages is machine language‚ which required the use of binary symbols (0s and 1s). Because this is the language of the CPU‚ text file that are translated into binary sets can be read by almost every computer system platform. Developers of programming languages attempted to overcome some of the difficulties

History of Programming Languages To date‚ there have been two conferences focusing on programming languages. The Special Interest Group on Programming Languages (SIGPLAN) of the Association for Computing Machinery sponsored two "History of Programming Languages (HOPL)" conferences. The first of these took place in Los Angeles in 1978‚ and focused on thirteen early languages: ALGOL‚ APL‚ APT‚ BASIC‚ COBOL‚ FORTRAN‚ GPSS‚ JOSS‚ JOVIAL‚ LISP‚ PL/I‚ SIMULA‚ and SNOBOL.

Concept of Java Programming Have you ever wondered how your electronic devices work? Well most likely your electronic devise is programmed by a computer language called Java. Java is one of the most popular languages for application development. It is going to continue to be one of the most popular languages because it’s free‚ it runs on any modern operating system‚ and Java is open source software so it can evolve to fit the needs of programmers. Java allows you to play online games‚ chat with

Technology Structure of Programming Language “C++ Programming Language” INSTRUCTOR: SCLP SUBMITTED BY: UC HISTORY OF C++ In the early 1970s‚ Dennis Ritchie of Bell Laboratories was engaged in a project to develop a new operating system. Ritchie discovered that in order to accomplish his task he needed the use of a programming language that was concise and that produced compact and speedy programs. This need led Ritchie to develop the programming language called C..

The Central Police Department had recently been criticized in the local media for not responding to police calls in the downtown area rapidly enough. In several recent cases‚ alarms had sounded for break-ins‚ but by the time the police car arrived‚ the perpetrators had left‚ and in one instance a store owner had been shot. Sergeant Davies had been assigned by the chief to find a way to determine the optimal patrol area (dimensions) for their cars that would minimize the average time it took to respond
