SQL
Structured Query Language
Originally based upon relational algebra and tuple relational calculus, SQL consists of a data definition language, data manipulation language, and a data control language. -
PYTHON
Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C++ or Java. -
Visual Basic
a legacy third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft for its COM programming model -
JAVA
James Gosling, Mike Sheridan, and Patrick Naughton initiated the Java language project in June 1991. Java was originally designed for interactive television, but it was too advanced for the digital cable television industry at the time. -
JAVASCRIPT
JavaScript was originally developed in 10 days in May 1995 by Brendan Eich, while he was working for Netscape Communications Corporation. Indeed, while competing with Microsoft for user adoption of web technologies and platforms, Netscape considered their client-server offering a distributed OS with a portable version of Sun Microsystems' Java providing an environment in which applets could be run. -
PHP
designed for web development but also used as a general-purpose programming language. -
DELPHI
Delphi was originally developed by Borland as a rapid application development tool for Windows -
C++
Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup. Designed to be an efficient and flexible language similar to C. -
