| | Computer language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A computer language is a language used by, or in association with, computers. |  | | Often, the term is used synonymously with programming language, but in general a computer language need not be a programming language. |  | | Programming languages foster the communication of programs among programmers and computers; markup languages communicate the formatting or structure of documents among humans and computers; and so on. |

| | The History of Computer Programming Languages |
 | | The language was designed at IBM for scientific computing. |  | | It was the first computer language for electronic devices and it required the programmer to change its statements into 0's and 1's by hand. |  | | Computer languages were first composed of a series of steps to wire a particular program; these morphed into a series of steps keyed into the computer and then executed; later these languages acquired advanced features such as logical branching and object orientation. |

 | | The language was further extended to use computational reflection to manage distributed computing and other language extensions in a way that is as seamless as possible to the user. |  | | MATLAB- is an intuitive language and a technical computing environment. |  | | OCTAVE- GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. |

 | | I am a believer in the notion of using a variety of computer languages. |  | | Reflective languages are ones that are designed to conveniently allow programs to manipulate themselves and other programs. |  | | Linux is a generally attractive environment for software development particularly with "novel" computer languages as there are |

 | | Assembly language is very flexible and powerful; anything that the hardware of the computer is capable of doing can be done in assembly. |  | | Until the early 1980s, although compilers existed for a variety of machine architectures and operating systems, the language was almost exclusively associated with Unix; more recently, its use has spread much more widely, and today it is among the languages most commonly used throughout the computer industry. |  | | A high-level programming language from Microsoft that's graphically oriented and relatively easy to learn, Visual Basic can be used to create everything from simple database applications to commercial software packages. |

| | andrew cooke: an introduction to programming languages |
 | | This may not be a difficult problem in functional languages, but in procedural languages the extent (in time) of a piece of data is not always obvious. |  | | Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs is a good book on programming in general that uses Scheme. |  | | For example, a language may treat a string of characters and number in different ways (dividing a string by 3.14 may not be possible, even if the string, when printed, is "200"). |

| | Quotes about Computer Languages |
 | | XML is not a language in the sense of a programming language any more than sketches on a napkin are a language. |  | | First learn computer science and all the theory. |  | | A language that doesn't have everything is actually easier to program in than some that do. |

| | DigiBarn Posters: Mother Tongues of Computer Languages |
 | | This is not a complaint as much as an appeal to take the entire problem of computer languages and their evolution seriously - these are the languages we use to describe the world with, and their limitations are the limitations of our computational models of the world. |  | | Regarding accuracy, a rather significant error is the confusion of frames-based knowledge language with Korn-shell for unix. |  | | This is a poster gives us a peek at the strongest branches of computer languages. |
