Programming Language Timeline

  • Plankalkul

    It was made by Konrad Zuse and it was designed for engineering purposes. It was one of the first high level to be released for computer.
  • Fortran

    Mainly made especially for numeric computation and scientific computing. John Backus was the creator on the programming language.
  • MATH-MATIC

    It was designed by Remington Rand.
  • Lisp

    Lisp was designed by John McCarthy. It is mainly used as a practical mathematical notation for computer programs.
  • COBOL

    is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use.
  • RPG

    Designed by IBM. RPG is a high level programming language for business applications.
  • Basic

    is a family of general-purpose, high-level programming languages whose design philosophy emphasizes ease of use.
  • LOGO

    LOGO was designed by Wally Feurzeig and Seymour Papert. It is the second oldest high level programming language. It is known for its turtle graphics.
  • B

    as designed for recursive, non-numeric, machine independent applications, such as system and language software
  • Pascal

    It was designed by Niklaus Wirth and Pascal is mainly used for the development of Apple lisa
  • C

    is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. Created/Designed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972
  • ML

    It was designed by Robin Milner & others at the University of Edinburgh.
  • SQL

    It was designed by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce and is developed by ISO/IEC. it is used for manage data.
  • Ada

    Ada is a structured, statically typed, imperative, wide-spectrum, and object-oriented high-level computer programming language, created in 1980
  • C++

    is a general-purpose programming language. It has imperative, object-oriented and generic programming features, while also providing facilities for low-level memory manipulation. Designed by Bjarne Stroustrup
  • Visual Basic

    It is developed by Microsoft and is used for Component Object Modeling programming models.
  • Python

    It was designed by Guido van Rossum and developed by Python Software Foundation. It is a high level multiple purpose programming language used to express code in fewer lines.
  • Delphi

    A software development kit for desktop, mobile, web and console applications. It was developed by Borland.
  • PHP

    It was designed by Rasmus Lerdorf and is mainly a server-side scripting language mainly for web development
  • Java

    Java was created by James Gosling and is mainly used for any program any where. Any programmer could make something and could easily use it anywhere they need it.
  • JavaScript

    JavaScript is one of the main 3 cores of the internet(WWW). It is used to help make websites and programs. It was designed by Brendan Eich.
