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.

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

Identify five procedures an auditor should perform in determining whether to accept a client. Which of these five are required by auditing standards? First they should gather and examine all available financial information‚ such as tax returns‚ annual reports‚ the balance sheet‚ and income statement. This should be done so that the audit firm can do a quick initial

Linear Thermal Expansion The term thermal expansion refers to the increase in size of an object as that object is heated. With relatively few exceptions‚ all objects expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Perhaps the most important exception to this rule is water. Water contracts as it cools from its boiling point to about 39.2°F (4°C). At that point‚ it begins to expand as it cools further to its freezing point. This unusual effect explains the fact that ice is less dense

Unit 1‚ Research Assignment 1: Exploring Programming Languages 1.) There have been several versions of SQL created in the last 26 years. In 1986‚ SQL-86 (SQL-87) was first published. In 1989‚ SQL-89 was a minor revision made to the original SQL. In 1992‚ SQL-92 (SQL2) was a major revision to its previous version. In 1999‚ SQL-99 (SQL3) added regular expression matching‚ recursive queries‚ triggers‚ non scalar types and some object oriented features. In 2003‚ SQL-2003 introduced XML related

Manufacturing overhead (also known as factory overhead‚ factory burden‚ production overhead) involves a company’s factory operations. It includes the costs incurred in the factory other than the costs of direct materials and direct labor. This is the reason that manufacturing overhead is often classified as an indirect product cost. Generally accepted accounting principles require that cost of direct material cost‚ direct labor‚ and manufacturing overhead be considered as the cost of products for

A History of Computer Programming Languages The first programming languages predate the modern computer. From the first‚ the languages were codes. Herman Hollerith realized that he could encode information on punch cards when he observed that railroad train conductors would encode the appearance of the ticket holders on the train tickets using the position of punched holes on the tickets. Hollerith then proceeded to encode the 1890 census data on punch cards which he made the same size as the boxes
