Computer Programming timeline.

Plankalkul programming was created by Konrad Zuse. Plankalkul programming allowed for the creation of procedures (also called routines or subroutines; stored chunks of code that could be invoked repeatedly to perform routine operations. Plankalkul stands for Plan Calculus.

MATH-MATIC programming was created by Remington Rand. MATH-MATIC allowed for larger programs, automatically generating code to read overlay segments from UNISERVO tape as required. The compiler attempted to avoid splitting loops across segments. MATH-MATIC is the marketing name for the AT-3 (Algebraic Translator 3) compiler, an early programming language for the UNIVAC I and UNIVAC II

Fortran programming was created by John Backus. The primary purpose of Fortran programming was to be used for such projects as the design of bridges and aeroplane structures, it is used for factory automation control, for storm drainage design, analysis of scientific data and so on. Fortran stands for Formula Translation.

COBOL programming was created by Howard Bromberg, Norman Discount, Vernon Reeves, Jean E. Sammet, William Selden, and Gertrude Tierney. The primary purpose of COBOL programming was to be used in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies and governments. COBOL is still widely used in applications deployed on mainframe computers, such as large-scale batch and transaction processing jobs. COBOL stands for "common business-oriented language".

Lisp programming was created by John McCarthy. Lisp is a programming language that was designed for easy manipulation of data strings.Lisp programming stands for list processing.

RPG programming was created by IBM. An RPG programmer creates or enhances software and programs using RPG (Report Program Generator), a specialized coding language developed by IBM. RPG is currently used for business applications and is compatible with IBM i- or OS/400-based systems. RPG stands for Report Program Generator.

BASIC was created by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz. The primary purpose oof BASIC was to provide a way for students to write simple computer programs. BASIC stands for Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.

LOGO was created by Seymour Papert, Cynthia Solomon, and Wally Feurzeig. LOGO is a computer programming language used for functional programming, and is used for generating basic shapes using a turtle cursor. Logo is not an acronym: the name was coined by Feurzeig while he was at Bolt, Beranek and Newman, and derives from the Greek logos, meaning word or thought.

B was created by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie. B programming language was developed primarily for non-numeric applications such as system programming that included complex logical decision-making and processing of integers, bit strings, and characters.

PASCAL programming was created by Niklaus Wirth. Pascal is an imperative and procedural programming language designed as a small, efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring. PASC

SQL programming was created by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce. SQL is a special-purpose programming language designed for managing data in a relational database and is used by a huge number of apps and organizations. SQL stands for Structured Query Language.

C programming was created by Dennis Ritchie. C programming was used for scripting system applications which form a major part of Windows, UNIX, and Linux operating system. C is a general-purpose programming language and can efficiently work on enterprise applications, games, graphics, and applications requiring calculations, etc. C programming stands for Basic Combine Programming Language.

ML programming was created by Robin Milner. ML is a general-purpose, modular, functional programming language with compile-time type checking and type inference. It is popular among compiler writers and programming language researchers, as well as in the development of theorem proves. ML programming stands for Meta Language.

ADA was creted by Dr. Jean Ichbiah. The primary purpose of this language was to improves code safety and maintainability by using the compiler to find errors in favor of runtime errors. ADA was chosen in honor of Augusta Ada Lovelace (1815-1852), a mathematician who is sometimes regarded as the world's first programmer because of her work with Charles Babbage.

Python programming was created by Guido van Rossum. Python is a general-purpose programming language. Hence, you can use the programming language for developing both desktop and web applications. Also, you can use it for developing complex scientific and numeric applications. It is designed with features to facilitate data analysis and visualization.

Visual Basic programming was created by Alan Cooper. Visual Basic (VB) is an event-driven programming language and the environment from Microsoft that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) which allows programmers to modify code by simply dragging and dropping objects and defining their behavior and appearance.

PHP programming was created by Rasmus Lerdorf. PHP is a server side scripting language that is used to develop Static websites or Dynamic websites or Web applications. PHP stands for Hypertext Pre-processor, that earlier stood for Personal Home Pages.

Delphi programming was created by Anders Hejlsberg. The primary purpose of Delphi programming was for the rapid application development of desktop, mobile, web, and console software, currently developed and maintained by Embarcadero Technologies which uses an event-driven paradigm.

Java programming was created by Ryan Gosling. The primary purpose of Java programming was to be designed to have the look and feel of the C++ programming language, but is simpler to use and enforces an object-oriented programming model. Java can be used to create complete applications that may run on a single computer or be distributed among servers and clients in a network.

Javascript programming was created by Brendan Eich.avaScript is an object orient programming language designed to make web development easier and more attractive.

C++ was created by Bjarne Stroustrup. The primary purpose of C++ was to make a better C. In other words to create a language with all the capabilities of C but with object-oriented capabilities.
