  2. Programming language generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_language...

    This includes features like improved support for aggregate data types and expressing concepts in a way that favors the programmer, not the computer. A third-generation language improves over a second-generation language by having the computer take care of non-essential details. 3GLs are more abstract than previous generations of languages, and ...

  3. Generational list of programming languages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generational_list_of...

    This is a "genealogy" of programming languages. Languages are categorized under the ancestor language with the strongest influence. Those ancestor languages are listed in alphabetic order. Any such categorization has a large arbitrary element, since programming languages often incorporate major ideas from multiple sources.

    Dennis Ritchie, having improved on the B language, named his creation New B. He later renamed it C. (See also D). C++ – an object-oriented programming language, a successor to the C programming language. C++ creator Bjarne Stroustrup named his new language "C with Classes" and then "new C". The original language began to be called "old C ...

    Programming language evolution continues with the rise of new programming domains. Increased interest in distribution and mobility. Integration with databases, including XML and relational databases. Open source as a developmental philosophy for languages, including the GNU Compiler Collection and languages such as PHP, Python, Ruby, and Scala.

    In other words, instead of coding, the developer uses table-driven algorithm programming (see also control tables that can be used for this purpose). These types of tools can be used for business application development usually consisting in a package allowing for both business data manipulation and reporting, therefore they come with GUI ...

  8. Fifth-generation programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth-generation...

    A fifth-generation programming language (5GL) is a high-level programming language based on problem-solving using constraints given to the program, rather than using an algorithm written by a programmer. [1] Most constraint-based and logic programming languages and some other declarative languages are fifth-generation languages.

  9. Programming paradigm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_paradigm

    A programming paradigm is a relatively high-level way to conceptualize and structure the implementation of a computer program. A programming language can be classified as supporting one or more paradigms. [1] Paradigms are separated along and described by different dimensions of programming.
