1.2 Timeline Assignment

  • PLANKALKUL

    PLANKALKUL is a computer program that was designed for the purposes of engineering. The name does have meaning, but the name itself is not an acronym. Kalkül" means formal systemt and Hilbert-style deduction system is called "Hilbert-Kalkül", so Plankalkül means "formal system for planning". Konrad Zuse developed the language during WWII(1942).
  • MATH-MATIC

    MATH-MATIC is an early computer programming language for the UNIVAC I and UNIVAC II. The name itself, is not an acronym. The language itself was written in 1955 by a team, who were led by Charles Katz
  • FORTRAN

    FORTRAN is an imperative programming language, that is used for numeric computation and scientific computing. The developer of FORTRAN was designed and developed by Jack Backus and IBM. The name was derived from Formula Translation. (1957)
  • LISP

    LISP is a family of computer programming languages with a long histories. LISP stands for list processing. LISP is the second-oldest high-level programming language that is still used today. LISP was invented by John McCarthy in 1958 at MIT. Lisp was originally created as a practical mathematical notation for computer program. In the coming years the program would be highly favor for artificial intelligence research.
  • COBOL

    COBOL is an acronym for common business-oriented language. COBOL is used in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies and governments. COBOL is still widely used in applications that are used on mainframe computers, but the program is not used as much today. COBOL was designed in 1959 by CODASYL and was inspired by Grace Hopper, who is commonly referred to as the grandmother of COBOL.
  • RPG

    RPG is a computer language that is used for business. The language was developed by IBM in 1959. The name derives from report program generator
  • BASIC

    BASIC is an acronym and it stands for Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. The program was designed by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College. Both wanted others who weren’t necessarily in the field of mathematics and science to use computers.
  • LOGO

    LOGO is an educational language that was created designed by Wally Feurzeig, Seymour Papert and Cynthia Solomon. LOGO is not an acronym, but rather derived from the greek "logos" meaning word or thought. The language's purpose was to teach concepts of programming related to Lisp.
  • PASCAL

    PASCAL is an imperative and procedural programming language, that was designed by Niklaus Wirth designed 1968–69 and published in 1970. The intention was to encourage good programming practices. It is named in honor of the French mathematician and philosopher Blaise Pascal.
  • B

    B is a programming language, that was developed at Bell Labs in 1969. The creators names were Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie. B was designed for non-numeric, machine-independent applications. The name B is derived from BCPL.
  • C

    The computer language C was created was developed Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie in the 1970s. . C is a procedural language, which means that they wrote the program with step-by-step instructions.
  • ML

    ML, which stands for Meta Language, is a general-purpose functional programming language. It has roots in Lisp. The program is known for, automatically assigning the types of most expressions without requiring explicit type annotations. ML is used heavily in programming language research and is a language that is specified and verified using formal semantics. The program was designed by Robin Milner and others at the University of Edinburgh.
  • ADA

    ADA is a program that is designed for applications that are large and will tend to live a long life. The key is reliability and efficiency. The program was initially created in the 1980s by a team of people who were led by Dr. Jean Ichbiah at CII-Honeywell-Bull in France. The language itself was revised in the 90s. ‘ADA’ is not an acronym. The name ‘ADA’ stands for Augusta Ada Lovelace, who was a coveted mathematician, who is said to be the first computer programmer.
  • C++

    C++ is a general-purpose object-oriented programming (OOP) language, that was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup. C++ is an extension of the C language. It is possible to code C++ in a "C style" or "object-oriented style. The C++ is an example of a hybrid language. C++ is one of the most popular languages that is used with system and application software, drivers, client-server applications and embedded firmware.
  • SQL

    SQL stands for Structured Query Language. SQL is designed for managing data held in a relational database management system, or for stream processing in a relational data stream management system. SQL was designed by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce. SQL introduced the concept of accessing records with just one command, and also eliminate the need to specify how to reach a record.SQL became a standard of the American National Standards Institute in 1986.
  • DELPHI

    Object Pascal is a branch of object-oriented, which derives from Pascal, mostly known as the primary programming language of Delphi. Embarcadero Delphi is an integrated development environment (IDE) for numerous applications. It's also an event driven language. Delphi's compilers use their own Object Pascal dialect of Pascal and generate native code for several platforms.
  • PYTHON

    Python is a high-level programming language for general-purpose programming. The language was created by Guido van Rossum and it was released in 1991. Python features a type system and automatic memory management.
  • VISUAL BASIC

    Visual Basic is a third-generation programming language that was created by Microsoft. The model first released in 1991. Microsoft intended Visual Basic to be easy to learn and use.Visual Basic was derived from BASIC. With this language, any programmer can create an application using the components provided by the program itself.
  • JAVA SCRIPT

    JavaScript, is a high-level, dynamic, weakly typed, prototype-based, multi-paradigm, and interpreted programming language. JavaScript was designed by Brendan Eich and was developed at, Netscape Communications Corporation, Mozilla Foundation, and Ecma International is one of the three core technologies that is used within today's society. JavaScript is used to make webpages interactive and provide online programs, including video games.
  • PHP

    PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development. PHP was created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994.In the beginning, PHP stood for Personal Home Page, but it now stands for the recursive acronym PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. PHP code may be within the HTML code, or it can be used in combination with various web template systems, web content management systems, and web frameworks. PHP code is usually processed by a PHP interpreter.
  • JAVA

    Java is a general-purpose computer-programming language that is intended to let application developers compile Java code and thus, it could run on all platforms that support Java without the need for recompilation. Even today, Java is one of the most popular programming languages in use. Java was developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems and then the program was released in 1995.. The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++.
