Pascal was invented in 1970 by niklaus wirth a small but very precise language meant to promote good programming practices.…
The 1970s was a very outstanding year for programming languages. The five most popular languages of the decade where Ada, Pascal, C, Smalltalk, and bliss. The creators of the languages are as follow: Ada-Jean Ichbiah at Alsys in the 1970s primarily for applications used by the U.S. department of Defense. The program is named in honor of countess Ada Lovelace, an influential and historical figure in the field of computing. Pascal-Niklaus Wirth and Kathleen Jensen in the 1970s and was originally designed for teaching programming. C-Dennis Ritchie in 1972 at Bell Laboratories, which is a very powerful and yet general purpose language. Smalltalk-Daniel Henry Holmes Ingalls, Jr. it was created in 1972 as the language to underpin the new world of computing and in part for education. BLISS-W.A. Wulf and D.B. Russell back in 1970 at…
I am writing a brief essay on the history of SQL and database developers that have to offer “Express” versions of their database. SQL that is also known as Structured Query Language, is the standard language used to communicate with a relational database. The model was originally developed by IBM using Dr. E.F. Codd’s paper as a model of data for large shared data bank. In 1979, not long after IBM’s prototype, the first SQL product, Oracle, was released by Relational Software, Incorporated.…
1970s: 1. Pascal was created by Niklaus Writh. 2. C was designed by Dennis Ritchie. 3. Plus was created by Alan Ballard and Paul Whaley. 4. FLACC was made by Chris Thomson and Colin Broughton. 5. CBASIC was written by Gordon Eubanks.…

In the history of cryptography, the Enigma was a portable cipher machine used to encrypt and decrypt secret messages. More precisely, Enigma was a family of related electro-mechanical rotor machines comprising a variety of different models.…
As a programming language, Java can create all kinds of applications that you could create using any conventional programming language.…
There are a lot of programming languages at present. There are many computer languages - "FORTRAN", "COBOL", "BASIC", "Pascal", "C++", "Java", etc. - just like there are many human languages. They all express approximately the same concepts in different ways. They all have their own features, for example BASIC language is a very easy language to start with, but is not so much versatile compared to C++. Using C++, it is even possible to control the hardware of your system,…

The Z1 originally created by Germany's Konrad Zuse in his parents living room in 1936 to 1938 is considered to be the first electrical binary programmable computer.…
The creation of C++ was first put into motion in 1979 by its creator Bjarne Stroustrup. Bjarne was working on his PhD thesis at Cambridge University. He was using a large and detailed simulator, that he had written in Simula, to simulate running software over a network of computers. He found programming in Simula enjoyable and was impressed by how the programs class structure helped him organize his code. As the size of his program increased, he found that the language became increasingly more helpful.…
The first Pascal compiler was designed in Zürich for the CDC 6000 series mainframe computer family. Niklaus Wirth reports that a first attempt to implement it in Fortran in 1969 was unsuccessful due to Fortran's inadequacy to express complex data structures. The second attempt was formulated in the Pascal language itself and was operational by mid-1970. Many Pascal compilers since have been similarly self-hosting, that is, the compiler is itself written in Pascal, and the compiler is usually capable of recompiling itself when new features are added to the language, or when the compiler is to be ported to a new environment. The GNU Pascal compiler is one notable exception, being written in C.…
Today's lecture will be a quick history of programming languages. Since 1957 when the first Fortran was introduced for the IBM 704, literaly hundreds of new programming languages have come and gone--well, some of them have gone, and others--like Fortran, have managed to stay around. The sheer number of languages makes it impossible to cover them all in any depth--indeed, even the most important languages we will only have time to discuss in shallow detail today. As a result, we talk about only the most important languages--those that had historical significance either for their new ideas or their influences on the languages that followed them.…
The first generation programming languages is machine language,which required the use of binary symbols (0s and 1s).Because this is the language of the CPU,text file hat is translated into binary sets can be reas by almost every computer syatem platform.Originally no translator was used to change he source code into object code.…
The use of the word “computer” was first recorded in the 19th century and emerged in the modern from in the 1940’s. Charles Babbage is considered “the father of the computer” because he was the first to develop the concept of a programmable computer. He was a very intelligent man who was an English engineer as well as a polymath. He is credited with conceptualizing and inventing the first mechanical computer in the 19th century. His first design was a computer to aid in navigation calculations. In 1833 he decided a more general design would be beneficial so he began to develop that. He came up with an analytical engine which functioned through input programs and data. These inputs would be made through punch cards. For the output of information the machine had a printer, curve plotter and a bell that informed when the output…
