    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_programming...

    Multiple new programming languages tried to provide a modern replacement for the C programming language. Many new programming languages are influenced by the popular dynamic languages and promised adding type safety without decreasing the productivity. Many new programming languages uses LLVM in their implementation.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COBOL

    COBOL (/ ˈ k oʊ b ɒ l,-b ɔː l /; an acronym for "common business-oriented language") is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use. It is an imperative, procedural, and, since 2002, object-oriented language. COBOL is primarily used in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies and ...

    In 1959, Sammet and five other programmers established much of the design of the influential COBOL programming language, in a proposal written in a span of two weeks that was eventually accepted by Sylvania's U.S. government clients. [3] Sammet published Programming Languages: History and Fundamentals in 1969. The book gives an overview of 120 ...

    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 ...

  8. 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.

    Hopper also developed the programming language FLOW-MATIC to program the UNIVAC. [14] Frances E. Holberton, also working at UNIVAC, developed a code [clarification needed], C-10, which let programmers use keyboard inputs and created the Sort-Merge Generator in 1951. [16] [17] Adele Mildred Koss and Hopper also created the precursor to a report ...
