Timeline Assignment

  • Plankalkul

    designed by Konrad Zuse, Plankalkül (is a programming language designed for engineering purpose between 1942 and 1945. It was the first high-level programming language to be designed for a computer.
  • MATH-MATIC

    designed by Remington Rand, MATH-MATIC was intended as an improvement over FORTRAN. MATH-MATIC led to the development of the first English-language business data processing compiler, B-0. The name was the marketing name for the AT-3 (Algebraic Translator 3)
  • Fortran

    designed by John Backus, it is a general-purpose, compiled imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. The name is short for Formula Translation
  • Lisp

    designed by John McCarthy, Lisp was originally created as a practical mathematical notation for computer programs, it quickly became the favored programming language for artificial intelligence research.
  • COBOL

    designed by Howard Bromberg, Howard Discount, Vernon Reeves, Jean E. Sammet, William Selden, Gertrude Tierney, and Mary K. Hawes. It is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use. The name stands for is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use.
  • RPG

    Developed by IBM, RPG is an IBM proprietary programming language for business applications. It was developed as the Report Program Generator — a tool to replicate punched card processing on the IBM 1401.
  • BASIC

    developed by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz, it's purpose was to be a general, easy-to-use programming language for people in fields that had to program their own OS's. BASIC stands for Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code
  • LOGO

    designed by Wally Feurzeig, Seymour Papert, and Cynthia Solomon. Logo is widely known for its use of turtle graphics, in which commands for movement and drawing produced line or vector graphics, either on screen or with a small robot termed a turtle.
  • B

    designed by Ken Thompson, it was designed for recursive, non-numeric, machine-independent applications, such as system and language software. The name B derives from BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language)
  • PASCAL

    designed by Niklaus Wirth, Pascal is an imperative and procedural programming language, intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.
  • C

    developed by Dennis Ritchie, It was designed to be compiled using a relatively straightforward compiler to provide low-level access to memory and language constructs that map efficiently to machine instructions, all with minimal runtime support.
  • ML

    designed by Robin Milner, It is known for its use of the polymorphic Hindley–Milner type system, which automatically assigns the types of most expressions without requiring explicit type annotations, and ensures type safety. The name stands for Meta Language.
  • SQL

    desgined by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce, SQL is a domain-specific language used in programming and designed for managing data held in a relational database management system (RDBMS), or for stream processing in a relational data stream management system (RDSMS). It stands for Structured Query Language.
  • ADA

    Designed by Jean Ichbiah, improves code safety and maintainability by using the compiler to find errors. ADA was named after Ada Lovelace, the 1st computer [rpgrammer
  • C++

    Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup, it is a high-level object-oriented programming language that helps programmers write fast, portable programs. The name is C++ because it is an advance on the original C programming language
  • Python

    designed by Guido van Rossum, Python is dynamically typed and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming. Python is often described as a "batteries included" language due to its comprehensive standard library.
  • Visual Basic

    developed by Microsoft, Visual Basic was derived from BASIC and enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects.
  • Delphi

    Designed by Anders Hejlsberg. It is an event-driven programming language based on Object Pascal and an associated integrated development environment (IDE) for rapid application development of desktop, mobile, web, and console software.
  • PHP

    designed by Rasmus Lerdorf, PHP is a general-purpose programming language originally designed for web development.
  • Java

    designed by James Gosling, It is intended to let application developers write once, run anywhere, meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the need for recompilation.
  • JavaScript

    developed by Brendan Eich, JavaScript is one of the core technologies of the World Wide Web. JavaScript enables interactive web pages and is an essential part of web applications.
