    It is used for a programming language designed for engineering purposes.
  • Fortran

    Created by John Backus & IBM.
    It is used for a general-purpose, imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing.
  • LOGO

    It was designed by Wally Feurzeig and Seymour Papert.
    It is used as an educational programming language.
  • MATH-MATIC

    Created by a group led by Charles Katz in 1957.
    It was intended as an improvement over FORTRAN.
  • Lisp

    It was created by John McCarthy.
    It is used for a family of computer programming languages with a long history and a distinctive, fully parenthesized Polish prefix notation.
  • COBOL

    The acronym stands for COmmon Business-Oriented Language.
    Designed by the Conference on Data Systems Languages (CODASYL). The people on that team were Grace Hopper, William Selden, Gertrude Tierney, Howard Bromberg, Howard Discount, Vernon Reeves, Jean E. Sammet.
    It is a compiled computer programming language designed for business use.
  • RPG

    Acronym is Report Program Generator.
    It was designed by IBM.
    It was used for a high-level programming language (HLL) for business applications.
  • BASIC

    An acronym for Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.
    Created by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz.
    Created to enable students in fields other than science and mathematics to use computers.
  • B

    Created by Ken Thompson with Dennis Ritchie.
    It was designed for recursive, non-numeric, machine independent applications.
  • Pascal

    It was created by Niklaus Wirth.
    It is used for a small and efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.
  • C

    Created by Dennis Ritchie.
    It has facilities for structured programming and allows lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations.
  • ML

    It was created by Robin Milner & others at the University of Edinburgh.
    It is used for a general-purpose functional programming language.
  • SQL

    It is also known as Structured Query Language.

  • ADA

    Created by Jean Ichbiah of CII Honeywell Bull.
    Use are itt has built-in language support for explicit concurrency, offering tasks, synchronous message passing, protected objects, and non-determinism.

    Created by Bjarne Stroustrup.
    It is used for a general purpose programming language. It has facilities for low level memory manipulation.
  • Python

    It was designed by Guido van Rossum.
    It was created as a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language.
  • Visual Basic

    It is developed by Microsoft.
    It is used for a third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE)
  • Java

    Created by James Gosling and
    Sun Microsystems.
    It is a computer programming language that is concurrent, class-based, object-oriented, and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible.
  • Javascript

    It was designed by Brendan Eich.
    It is a dynamic computer programming language.
  • PHP

    Acronym stands for Personal Home Page.
    It was designed by Rasmus Lerdorf.

  • Delphi

    It was designed by Apple, Niklaus Wirth, and Anders Hejlsberg.
    Object Pascal refers to a branch of object-oriented derivatives of Pascal, mostly known as the primary programming language of Embarcadero Delphi.
