PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
1. Computers can deal with different kinds of problems but they must be
given the right instructions. Instructions are written in one of the high-level
languages, for example, FORTRAN, COBOL, ALGOL, PASCAL,
BASIC, or C. But a program written in one of these
languages should be
interpreted into machine code. Usually when one instruction written in a
high-level language is transformed into machine code, it results in several
instructions. Brief descriptions of some high-level
languages are given
below.
2. FORTRAN is acronym for Formula Translation. This language is used
for solving scientific and mathematical problems. It consists of algebraic
formula and English phrases.
3. COBOL is acronym for COmmon Business-Oriented Languages. This
language is used for commercial purposes.
COBOL deals with the
problems that do not involve a lot of mathematical calculations.
4. ALGOL is acronym for Algorithmic Language. It is used for
mathematical and scientific purposes.
5. Basic is acronym for Beginner’s All-purpose Symbolic Instruction
Code. It is used by students who require
a simple language to begin
programming.
6. С is developed to support the UNIX operating system. С is a genera-
purpose language.
7. When a program is designed to do a specific type of work it is called an
application program.
