Programming Languages

                          Programming Language

           A programming language is a computer language programmers use to develop software programs, scripts, or other sets of instructions for computers to execute.                          

                        Types Of Programming Languages  

• High-Level / Low Level
• Declarative / Imperative / Procedural
• Object-oriented / Concurrent
• General-purpose / Domain- Specific
• Command / Compiled

            C  Language

C programming is a general-purpose, procedural, imperative computer programming language developed in 1972 by Dennis M. Ritchie at the Bell Telephone Laboratories to develop the UNIX operating system. C is the most widely used computer language. It keeps fluctuating at number one scale of popularity along with Java programming language, which is also equally popular and most widely used among modern software programmers.

 C++   Language 

          C++ is a general purpose programming language having object-oriented programming features. It also provides the facilities for low level memory manipulation.

    Java    

            Java is a programming language and computing platform first released by Sun Microsystems in 1995. It has evolved from humble beginnings to power a large share of today’s digital world, by providing the reliable platform upon which many services and applications are built. New, innovative products and digital services designed for the future continue to rely on Java, as well.

               Python

               Python is an interpreted high-level general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with its use of significant indentation. Its language constructs as well as its object-oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical code for small and large-scale projects.

 Prolog

       Prolog is a logic programming language associated with artificial intelligence and computational linguistics.

       Prolog has its roots in first-order logic, a formal logic, and unlike many other programming languages, Prolog is intended primarily as a declarative programming language: the program logic is expressed in terms of relations, represented as facts and rules. A computation is initiated by running a query over these relations.

             VisiRule

 

               VisiRule is a tool for creating decision support software purely by drawing flowcharts. The end result is Flex or Prolog code which is automatically generated, compiled and ready to run, but which canalso be copied and used in a separate program.Not only can VisiRule be used by people with minimal programming skills. Once you are familiarwith the tool, building an application is like creating a graphical machine.

               VisiRule also enhancesproductivity by considerably reducing the time it takes to produce a decision support system.
