B
Developed at Bell Labs by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie. Now extinct, replaced by "C language". Based mainly by BCPL with only one data type. -
PASCAL
Influential imperative and procedural programming language developed by Niklaus Wirth. Used to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring. -
C
General-purpose computer programming language developed by Dennis Ritchie at the Bell Telephone Laboratories for use with the Unix operating system. originally designed for implementing system software, it is also widely used for developing portable application software. -
BASIC
Developed by Warren Robinett, who worked for atari. It was developed for the Atari 2600 console. It was also used to teach basic programming. -
C++
