Hello readers,
Today I am sharing some useful facts about different programming languages. These all facts are collected through different websites (eg. Wikipedia and others).
As we know programming languages are developed in many versions and day-by-day more features are added to them. Today languages like JAVA,.NET, JavaScript, Python etc are famous. These languages are most frequently used. Many of us familiar with them.
Let's talk about them one by one.
C-Language
What is C-Language?
C is a high-level and general-purpose programming language that is ideal for developing firmware or portable applications. Originally intended for writing system software. C was invented to write an operating system called UNIX.
Who developed C-Language?
C was developed at Bell Laboratories in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie. In 1978, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie produced the first publicly available description of C, now known as the K&R standard.
Many of its principles and ideas were taken from the earlier language B and B's earlier ancestors BCPL and CPL.CPL ( Combined Programming Language ) was developed with the purpose of creating a language that was capable of both high levels, machine-independent programming and would still allow the programmer to control the behavior of individual bits of information. The one major drawback of CPL was that it was too large for use in many applications. In 1967, BCPL ( Basic CPL ) was created as a scaled down version of CPL while still retaining its basic features. In 1970, Ken Thompson, while working at Bell Labs, took this process further by developing the B language. B was a scaled down version of BCPL written specifically for use in systems programming. Finally, in 1972, a co-worker of Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, returned some of the generality found in BCPL to the B language in the process of developing the language we now know as C.
Where to use C-Language?
The C language is used in computer games:
JAVA
What is JAVA?
Java is a general-purpose computer programming language that is concurrent, class-based, object-oriented, and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers "write once, run anywhere" (WORA), meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the need for recompilation.
Who developed JAVA?
James Gosling, Mike Sheridan, and Patrick Naughton initiated the Java language project in June 1991. The small team of sun engineers called Green Team. The language was originally called OAK, and at the time it was designed for handheld devices and set-top boxes. Oak was unsuccessful and in 1995 Sun changed the name to Java and modified the language to take advantage of the burgeoning World Wide Web.

C was initially used for system development work, particularly the programs that make-up the operating system. C was adopted as a system development language because it produces code that runs nearly as fast as the code written in assembly language. Some examples of the use of C might be −
- Operating Systems
- Language Compilers
- Assemblers
- Text Editors
- Print Spoolers
- Network Drivers
- Modern Programs
- Databases
- Language Interpreters
- Utilities

Why use JAVA?
There are lots of applications and websites that will not work unless you have Java installed, and more are created every day. Java is fast, secure, and reliable. From laptops to datacenters, game consoles to scientific supercomputers, cell phones to the Internet, Java is everywhere!
- Excellent tooling: IDE, CI, etc.
- A vast array of 3rd party libraries.
- A Huge amount of documentation available.
- A Large pool of developers available.
- Platform ubiquitous.
- Excellent performance.
- Excellent specification.
- Sturdy garbage collection.
- Managed memory.
- Native threads.
- Choice - implemented by multiple vendors.
PYTHON
What is Python?
Python is a clear and powerful object-oriented programming language, comparable to Perl, Ruby, Scheme, or Java.
In technical terms, Python is an object-oriented, high-level programming language with integrated dynamic semantics primarily for web and app development. It is extremely attractive in the field of Rapid Application Development because it offers dynamic typing and dynamic binding options.
Who developed Python?
Python created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991 at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands as a successor to the ABC language (itself inspired by SETL) capable of exception handling and interfacing with the operating system Amoeba.
