Genealogy of Programming Languages Pre-computer era Analytical engine The analytical engine‚ an important step in the history of computers‚ was the design of a mechanical general- purpose computer by the British mathematician Charles Babbage. It was first described in 1837. Because of financial‚ political‚ and legal issues‚ the engine was never built. In its logical design the machine was essentially modern‚ anticipating the first completed general-purpose computers by about 100 years. The input

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

Programming language generations The terms "first generation" and "second generation" programming language were not used prior to the coining of the term "third-generation"; none of these three terms are mentioned in early compendiums of programming languages. The introduction of a third generation of computer technology coincided with the creation of a new generation of programming languages. The marketing for this generational shift in machines correlated with several important changes in what

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.

CONCEPTS OF PROGRAMING LANGUAGES (COMPUTER SCIENCE 7) PRELIMINARIES Reasons for Studying Concepts of Programming Languages 1. Increased capacity to express ideas – People with limited grasp of natural language are limited in the complexity of their thoughts‚ it is difficult for people to conceptualize structure that they cannot describe‚ verbally or in writing. Programmers in the process of developing software encounter the same constraint. Programmers can increase the range of their software-development

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
