Pascal is one of the reference programming languages in computer science. Pascal was developed by Swiss Niklaus Wirth in 1970 to implement structured programming, which is easier to compile. One of its great advantages is its similarity to natural English, which makes it the ideal language for those who are in the first contact with programming. Pascal is based on the Algol language and was...
Common Intermediate Language (CIL), formerly known as Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), is the lowest programming language at the human language level, defined by the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) specifications, and is used by the .NET Framework, .NET Core and Mono. Languages targeting a CLI-compliant running environment are compiled to CIL, which is assembled into an object code...
The RPG programming language was created in the early 1960s by IBM to address the need for companies to create reports. RPG is an acronym for the English Report Program Generator, a program generator for reports. In the beginning, RPG was used only for generating and printing reports. Currently, RPG is a procedural programming language and is mainly used for creating applications in the economic...
Tcl/TK (Tool Command Language) is a scripting language based on strings, interpreted at run time. These features allow it to be portable on different operating systems. Its syntax has only twelve rules, but it has all the elements needed to create programs in almost any domain quickly. It allows the development of graphical applications running on Windows, Linux, MacOSX and many other platforms...
Verilog is a hardware description language (HDL), intended to describe the behavior and/or architecture of a numerical system; in other words a combinatorial or sequential logic function. A numerical system can be described, at different levels, depending on the aspects that interest you. Thus, an HDL can describe, at the switch level, the location of connection paths (wires), resistors, and...
VHDL (abbreviation for VHSIC HDL) is the acronym used for Very High-Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language. This is a hardware description language (HDL), intended to describe the behavior and/or architecture of a logical electronic “module,” in other words, a combinatorial and/or sequential logic function. Along with Verilog, it is the most widely used language for...
VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is a scripting language developed by Microsoft and supported by Microsoft’s Internet Explorer Web browser. VBScript is based on Visual Basic programming language, but it is much simpler. In many ways, it is similar to JavaScript. Allows web page authors to include interactive controls, such as buttons and scrollbars, in their web pages. VBScript has...
Swift is one of the fastest-growing programming languages and is currently one of the fastest and fastest ways to create iPhone applications. In 2014 Apple thought it would be good, in addition to computers, phones, tablets, operating systems, to launch a programming language. Its name is Swift and has become increasingly popular among application developers. Since its introduction, Swift has...
Groovy is a very powerful and successful language, a dynamic language for Java Virtual Machine that provides complete integration with Java and has its roots firmly rooted in Java itself, in terms of syntax and APIs. It also borrows from other programming languages such as Smalltalk, Python or Ruby for its dynamic properties. Groovy is used in many Open Source projects such...
R is an excellent programming language for statistics or data analysis and it has at the top a list of big users, the biggest of them being Google. The language is appreciated because of the power it offers to the mathematicians of the company. R is a system for statistical and graphical analysis created by Ross Ihakasi and Robert Gentleman. It is equally software and programming language...
