-
-
Developed by John Backus. Programmed as a language that was easy to learn and understand. Stands for Formula Translating (name is a blend of these two words).
-
Developed by Charles Katz. Used as the marketing name for the AT-3 compiler.
-
Developed by John McCarthy. Created as a practical mathematical notation for computer programs

Developed by a team consisting of Daniel G. Bobrow, Wally Feurzeig, Seymour Papert and Cynthia Solomon. Originally conceived and written as a functional programming language, and drove a mechanical turtle as an output device
-
Developed by Ken Thompson. Primarily for non-numeric applications such as system programming.
-
Developed by Niklaus Wirth. Intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.
-
Developed by Dennis Ritchie. Provides typical machine instructions, which resulted in lasting for quite some time due to applications having been formerly coded in assembly language.
-
Developed by Robin Milner. Referred to as an impure functional language, because it encapsulates side-effects, unlike purely functional programming languages. Stands for MetaLanguage
