Programming languages are developed so that the user can input instructions to the computer. They allow users to invent programs. As well as the supervision of the machine in terms of its behavior. There are numerous programming languages that are being made each year. Programming languages use a sequence of commands to perform a particular task. Their main aim is to be simple, robust and secure.
 
One of the well-known programs that are commonly used in the world today is ‘Java’. This program is specifically designed keeping in mind the convenience of the user. It allows the code to be recompiled in one platform rather than being recompiled in several ones. James Gosling is the developer of Java at Sun Microsystems. It released in 1995. An advantage of the Java program is the fact that it is portable, this states that the program written in Java should run equivalently on any other hardware and operating system. The main goal of Java is to be easy to use as well as to have a high performance.
 
The second language, which is very familiar, is ‘C++’.  Since this language consists of both the high end programming level as well as the low end, it is known to be in the intermediate level. The C++ language was developed at Bell Labs by Bjarne Stroustrup in 1979. Many people have compared C++ to other advanced languages, and have stated that C++ does not enforce a single style unlike the other languages. Companies such as Microsoft provide the compiler software for this programming language. 
 
The last topic we will look at for now is the Python programming language. It is one of the most popular programming language present to date. Unlike other languages, fewer lines of code can be used to carry out a certain task in python.  One of the very important features of python is the indentation. Although this feature has received a lot of criticism, there are still many programmers who have concluded this to be useful.  Secondly another advantage of Python is its standard library. This library can provide tools that may be applicable to several tasks.
 
Java, C++ and Python are few of the numerous programming languages present. They are constantly being used to produce efficient and outstanding programs for the people to use.  All of them are well known throughout the world and have definitely changed the way users can program. 

 

3 Questions:

 

1. Is a new programming language created with the support of another programming language? 

2. What are the common  problems the users are facing with programming languages today?

3. How secure are languages such as Java and Python?
