...Marques bullie Pt1420 intro to programming Unit 1 assn.1 exploring programming languages The progression of computer programming languages was made possible by the programmer's search for efficient translation of human language into something that can be read and understood by computers. The languages generated, called machine code, have high levels of abstraction, which hide the computer hardware and make use of representations that are more convenient to programmers. As programs evolve and become more sophisticated, programmers found out that certain types of computer languages are easier to support. As expected in a dynamic discipline, there is no standard for categorizing the languages used in programming. There are, in fact, dozens of categories. One of the most basic ways to categorize the languages is through a programming paradigm, which gives the programmer's view of code execution. Among the languages classifications according to programming paradigm are: o Object-Oriented Programming Languages Known as the newest and most powerful paradigms, object-oriented programming requires the designer to specify the data structures as well as the types of operations to be applied on those data structures. The pairing of data, and the operations that can be done on it is called an object. A program made using this language is therefore made up of a set of cooperating objects instead of an instructions list. The most famous object-oriented programming these days are...

...| Exploring Programming Language | Unit 1 Research Assignment 1 | | | 5/3/2014 | PT1420 | The five most popular programming languages in the 1970’s were: 1970: Pascal 1972: C 1972: Smalltalk 1972: Prolog 1973: SQL Pascal The Pascal programming language was developed by Niklaus Wirth. It was created in 1968 but it wasn’t published until 1970. It was developed to provide the features other programming languages didn’t offer at that time. His main reason for developing Pascal was efficiently implement and run, to allow for the development of structured and well organized programs, and to serve as a tool to teach the important concepts of computer programming. The program was named after a mathematician named Blaise Pascal. It was used as the primary language in the Apple Lisa and for the Mac in the early years of the computer. SQL SQL, which is short for, Structured Query Language, was designed by an IBM research center in 1974-1975. The Oracle Corporation introduced it as a commercial database system in 1979, the first time it was introduced. It has been a favorite query language for the use of database management systems for the microcomputer and mainframes, but is being supported by the PC database. C C was created at the Bell Laboratory in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie. It was created for the purpose in designing UNIX. Prolog Was created from 1971-1973 and was distributed in 1974-1975. It was created not as a programming language on purpose but...

...Unit 1 Assignment 1 Exploring Programming Languages PT1420 Introduction to Programming Pong Sintaisong ITT-Tech Tempe Campus Instructor: Ms. Kate Eskesen 9/23/2015 5 Programming Languages 1970s-2000 1970s Pascal: Niklaus Wirth was is the invertor and was invented in 1971 Motivation: To provide features that were lacking in other languages at the time. Forth: Forth was created in 1970 by Charles H. Moore Motivation: He wanted to create a language that would allow direct user and machine interactions. C: In 1971-73 Dennis M. Ritchie turned the B language into the C language. Motivation: Lack of features from B language so made C language. Prolog: Alain Colmerauer in 1973. Motivation: Unknown ML: In 1973 ML was invented as part of the University of Edinburgh's LCF project Motivation: Research in constructing automated theorem provers. Eventually saw that the "Meta Language" they used for proving theorems was more generally useful as a programming language. 1980s C++: Bjarne Stroustrup was the inventor. 1979 Motivation: He needed the use of a programming language that was concise and that produced compact and speedy programs. MATLAB: First Fortran MATLAB was portable and could be compiled to run on many of the computers that were available in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Cleve Moler is the inventor. Motivation: This document for engineers developing models and generating code for embedded systems using Model-Based Design with MathWorks products. ADA:...
