Programming Language Timeline

  • Fortran

    The Fortran programming language was created by John Backus in 1954 and is used for and has been 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.
  • COBOL

    The COBOL programming language was created by Grace Hopper in 1959 and is used that reads like regular English and is often used for business and administrative purposes.
  • MATH-MATIC

    The MATH-MATIC programming language was created by Remington Rand in 1959 and it was a question if they could use mathematics or not.
  • Lisp

    The lisp programming language was created by John McCarthy in 1960 and is used for a commonly used language for artificial intelligence (AI) programming
  • PASCAL

    The PASCAL programming language was created by Niklaus Wirth in 1960 and is used for teaching programming as a systematic discipline and to develop reliable and efficient programs
  • BASIC

    The BASIC programming language was created by John G. Kemeny in 1964 and is used to provide a way for students to write simple computer programs.
  • python

    The python programming language was created by Alan White in 1965 and is used for others to make their code easier for then to read.
  • LOGO

    The LOGO programming language was created by Wally Fuerzeig in 1967 and is used for functional programming, and is used for generating basic shapes using a turtle cursor
  • B

    The B programming language was created by Ken Thompson in 1969 and is used forrecursive, non-numeric, machine-independent applications, such as system and language software.
  • C

    The C programming language was created by Dennis Ritchie in 1978 and is used for writing computer applications
  • RPG

    The RPG programming language was crated by Don Griffin in 1978 and is used for helping people see what they are coding Alot easier.
  • ADA

    ADA was created by Jean Icebiah in the 1908s and it provides additional support for modern programming practices.
  • ML

    The ML programming language was created by Robin Milner in 1983 and is used for a statically-scoped functional programming language like Scheme.
  • C++

    The C++ programming language was created by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1985 and is used for helping programmers write fast, portable programs.
  • Visual Basic

    The Visual Basic programming language was created by John Rickman in 1985 and is used for helping others visualize what will be in their code.
  • PHP

    The PHP programming language was created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994 and is used for especially suited to server-side web development, in which case PHP generally runs on a web server
  • Delphi

    The Delphi programming language was created by Anders Hejlsberg in 1995 and is based on the Object Pascal language. The IDE runs on Windows, but the compiler targets Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux.
  • Java

    The Java programming language was created by James Gosling in 1995 and is used for expressly designed for use in the distributed environment of the internet
  • JavaScript

    The Javascript programming language was created by Brendan Eich in 1995 and is used for The reason for this is quite simply because of its role as the scripting language of the world wide web.
  • Plankalkul

    The Plankalkul programming language was created by John Goodman in 1995 used for seeing if they can make one thing work over the other.
  • SQL

    The SQL programming language was created back in 1995 by Alan Watson and is used for helping others teach how to code.
