  2. SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL

    SQL was initially developed at IBM by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce after learning about the relational model from Edgar F. Codd [12] in the early 1970s. [13] This version, initially called SEQUEL (Structured English Query Language), was designed to manipulate and retrieve data stored in IBM's original quasirelational database management system, System R, which a group at IBM San ...

  3. List of programming languages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming_languages

    This is an index to notable programming languages, in current or historical use. Dialects of BASIC, esoteric programming languages, and markup languages are not included. A programming language does not need to be imperative or Turing-complete, but must be executable and so does not include markup languages such as HTML or XML, but does include domain-specific languages such as SQL and its ...

  4. List of programming languages by type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming...

    Declarative programming stands in contrast to imperative programming via imperative programming languages, where control flow is specified by serial orders (imperatives). (Pure) functional and logic-based programming languages are also declarative, and constitute the major subcategories of the declarative category. This section lists additional ...

  5. Query language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_language

    A query language, also known as data query language or database query language (DQL), is a computer language used to make queries in databases and information systems. In database systems, query languages rely on strict theory to retrieve information. [1] A well known example is the Structured Query Language (SQL).

    The GML scripting language used by GameMaker Studio is a domain-specific language targeted at novice programmers to easily be able to learn programming. While the language serves as a blend of multiple languages including Delphi, C++, and BASIC. Most of functions in that language after compiling in fact calls runtime functions written in ...

  8. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    The syntax of the SQL programming language is defined and maintained by ISO/IEC SC 32 as part of ISO/IEC 9075.This standard is not freely available. Despite the existence of the standard, SQL code is not completely portable among different database systems without adjustments.

  9. Declarative programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declarative_programming

    Declarative programming may greatly simplify writing parallel programs. [5] Common declarative languages include those of database query languages (e.g., SQL, XQuery), regular expressions, logic programming (e.g. Prolog, Datalog, answer set programming), functional programming, configuration management, and algebraic modeling systems.
