Perl

Front

It was written by Larry Wall and first released in 1988.

Back

ALGOL

Front

was sufficiently advanced and respected that most modern procedural languages reflect its overall structure and design; some, like Pascal, are very closely related.

Back

BASIC

Front

There have been many versions of it and some more modern ones (TurboBasic, QuickBasic Visual Basic) have added advanced features.

Back

BASIC

Front

Stereotypical programs like 10 PRINT "HELLO" and 10 GOTO 10 are written in it.

Back

LISP

Front

It was developed in 1950-1960 by John McCarthy and is used primarily for symbolic manipulations of complicated structures rather than numerical calculation.

Back

COBOL

Front

It is characterized as especially wordy (just as C and Perl are characterized as terse).

Back

Java

Front

This use of machine-independent bytecode gives it its "write once, run everywhere" property.

Back

C++

Front

a popular, compiled, high-level language developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1985 at Bell Labs.

Back

Pascal

Front

is a high-level, compiled language built upon ALGOL.

Back

BASIC

Front

is a high-level language developed by John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz at Dartmouth College in the mid 1960s.

Back

BASIC

Front

It is easy to use but its relative lack of structure makes maintaining programs difficult.

Back

Java

Front

The language was originally named OAK and unsuccessfully used for set-top devices, but hit it big after being renamed in 1995 and introduced to the World Wide Web.

Back

C

Front

It is widely used for business applications, games, operating systems (particularly UNIX and Linux), and device drivers.

Back

Java

Front

is a popular high-level language developed by Sun Microsystems in the early 1990s.

Back

COBOL

Front

(COmmon Business-Oriented Language)

Back

Java

Front

The success of Java inspired Microsoft to introduce its C# language and .NET framework.

Back

ALGOL

Front

was created in the late 1950s and was the first procedural language intended for solving mathematical and scientific problems.

Back

C

Front

It is a high-level and highly standardized language that remains very "close to the hardware" and allows the programmer to perform useful, fast, and dangerous tricks.

Back

LISP

Front

It and its descendants (Scheme, CommonLisp, etc.) continue to be used in academic research, particularly artificial intelligence.

Back

Fortran

Front

Designed by John Backus for IBM during the late 1950s, it was once in use on virtually every computer in the world and is still used today for engineering and scientific applications because of the quality of its compilers and numerical libraries.

Back

COBOL

Front

The vast majority of Year 2000 problems involved programs written in COBOL.

Back

Pascal

Front

The object-oriented language Delphi was based on it.

Back

Perl

Front

It is intended to be practical and concise rather than theoretically elegant and is sometimes lampooned as "write one, read never" because of its heavy use of symbols and idiom.

Back

COBOL

Front

was developed in 1959 by CODASYL (Conference on Data Systems Languages) under the direction of Rear Admiral Grace Hopper and is the second-oldest high-level language.

Back

Fortran

Front

(FORmula TRANslation)

Back

Java

Front

The success of it inspired Microsoft to introduce its C# language and .NET framework.

Back

Java

Front

Instead of being compiled to object code, it is compiled to Java bytecode, which is then interpreted or compiled on the fly.

Back

C++

Front

similar to C, but adds object-oriented features (classes), generic programming (templates), and exception handling to the language. It is a popular language for developing business applications and, increasingly, games.

Back

Fortran

Front

The name was originally entirely capitalized, but the ANSI Fortran Committee has since declared the "initial capital" spelling official.

Back

Fortran

Front

is the oldest high-level language.

Back

Perl

Front

is an interpreted language designed principally to process text.

Back

Perl

Front

It is often used for web CGI scripts and parsing log files.

Back

LISP

Front

(LISt Processing)

Back

C++

Front

It is a popular language for developing business applications and, increasingly, games.

Back

C++

Front

a popular, compiled, high-level language developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1985 at Bell Labs

Back

Pascal

Front

is best known for its emphasis on structured programming techniques and strong typing; because of this, it was extremely popular as a teaching language in the 1980s and early 1990s, though it was never popular for business or scientific applications.

Back

Java

Front

a popular high-level language developed by Sun Microsystems in the early 1990s. The language was originally named OAK and unsuccessfully used for set-top devices, but hit it big after being renamed in 1995 and introduced to the World Wide Web. It is a relatively pure object-oriented language with syntax similar to C++.

Back

Fortran

Front

The most popular versions are IV, 77, and 90.

Back

Perl

Front

is an unofficial retronym for "Practical Extraction Report Language."

Back

Pascal

Front

It is named after the 17th-century mathematician Blaise Pascal and was developed by Niklaus Wirth during 1967-71.

Back

C

Front

a compiled successor to the B programming language, was developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972.

Back

Java

Front

It is a relatively pure object-oriented language with syntax similar to C++.

Back

Java

Front

is principally used for client-side web application ("applets") and server-side web application ("servlets") that make use of J2EE technology.

Back

LISP

Front

is the ancestor of the family of functional languages that emphasize evaluating expressions rather than executing imperative commands.

Back

C++

Front

is similar to C, but adds object-oriented features (classes), generic programming (templates), and exception handling to the language.

Back

Java

Front

Instead of being compiled to object code, it is compiled to Java bytecode, which is then interpreted or compiled on the fly. This use of machine-independent bytecode gives it its "write once, run everywhere" property. Java is principally used for client-side web application ("applets") and server-side web application ("servlets") that make use of J2EE technology.

Back

BASIC

Front

(Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code)

Back

ALGOL

Front

Formalized in a report titled ALGOL 58, it progressed through ALGOL 60 and ALGOL 68 before waning in popularity.

Back

COBOL

Front

It emphasized record-processing and database access and uses an English-like syntax, all attributes that led to widespread use in business, particularly the financial sector.
