Plankalkül
PlankalküI was invented by Konrad Zuse. It was the first high level programming language invented and was primarily used for engineering purposes. -
Fortran
Fortran was invented in the 1950's by IBM. The lead developer was John Backus and made it a general purpose programming primarily used for numeric computation and scientific computing. -
MATH-MATIC
MATH-MATIC was developed in 1955 by Charles Katz. It was the marketing name for the AT-3 UNIVAC 1. -
RPG
RPG was released by IBM in 1959. RPG is an IBM proprietary programming language which means it can only be programmed for IBM systems. -
COBOL
COBOL is an English-like programming language. An example of variable assignment would be "MOVE x TO y", rather than in C it would be x = y;. It is an imperative and procedural programming language, but in 2002 it added OOP features. -
BASIC
BASIC was developed at Dartmouth college in New Hampsphire. BASIC made it where anyone could program without having experience in science or mathematics. -
LISP
LISP was developed by John McCarthy. It is a general-purposed, high-level, dynamic, and object oriented programming language. -
LOGO
LOGO was designed for an educational purpose. It would teach people to program by drawing shapes and things of that nature by simple code. -
B
Developed by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie in 1959 at Bell Labs. B was derived from BCPL. B was designed for recursive, non numeric, machine independent such as operating systems. -
C
C was developed by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs for the use of re-implementing unix systems. -
PASCAL
PASCAL is an imperative and procedural programming language published by Niklaus Wirth in 1970. Encouraged data structuring and structured programming. -
ML
The ML programming language was introduced in 1973 by Robin Milner in 1973. It is a general-purposed functional programming language. It developed tactics to for the LCF theorem prover. -
SQL
SQL first appeared in 1974. It is a specialized programming language designed to protect and manage data in database-like structures. -
Ada
Ada's programming language was developed between the years 1977 and 1983. It was developed for the United States Department of Defense. -
C++
C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup. It is a imperative and general purpose programming language with OOP features. It also allows for low level memory manipulation. -
Visual Basic
Visual Basic was introduced in 1991 by Microsoft. It is derived from BASIC and was intended to be easily taught and learned. -
Python
Python first appeared in 1991. It is a general-purposed, dynamic, high-level, interpreted programming language. Python is easily read by the coder and is very simple compared to other programming languages such as C, Java, or C++. -
Java
Java is a concurrent, classed based, and OOP programming language that was introduced in 1995. Java translates java-code to bytecode through the JVM so the computer can understand. -
JavaScript
Javascript is a interpreted programming language that adds the ability for the user to interact with the website. -
PHP
PHP is a server-sided programming language that extends a website's ability to provide a better experience developed by Rasmus Lerdorf. It is also used as a general-purposed programming language. -
Delphi
Delphi was a programming language and software development kit for desktop applications. Delphi also uses their own compilers to generate native code which is unique.
