Programming language is the communication language that Developers allows them to communicate with computers and create software applications. It allows them to write commands that the computer can interpret and execute to perform specific tasks.
Some types of programming languages
Python
Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum and released in 1991. It is used for: web development (server-side), software development, mathematics, system scripting language.
Python can be used on a server to build web applications, along with software to create workflows and connect to Database systems . It can also read and modify files, used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics, used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready software development.
Python works on a variety of platforms (e.g. Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc.) and has a simple syntax that is similar to the English language. It also has a syntax that allows developers to write programs with fewer lines than some other programming languages. It also has an interpreter system, which means that code can be executed as soon as it is written. This means that prototyping can be done very quickly and can be procedural, object-oriented, or functional.
Java
Java: is one of the most widely used programming languages and was developed in 1995.
Java works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc.)
Java works on various platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc.). It is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, has a great demand in the current job market, is easy to learn and easy to use, open-source and free, secure, fast and powerful, has large community support (tens of millions developer),costs, As Java is close to C++ and C#, it makes it easy for programmers to switch to Java or vice versa
JavaScript
JavaScript is one of the three languages that all web developers must learn:
- HTML for defining the content of web pages
- CSS to define the layout of web pages
- JavaScript for programming the behavior of websites
JavaScript can modify HTML content, change HTML attribute values, change HTML styles (CSS), and show and hide HTML elements. JavaScript and Java are completely different languages in both concept and design. JavaScript was invented by Brendan Eich in 1995 and became an ECMA standard in 1997. ECMA-262 is the official name of the standard. ECMAScript is the official name of the language.
PHP
PHP is an amazing and popular language! Acronym for “PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor”, a widely used open source scripting language. Scripts are executed on the server. It is powerful enough to be the heart of the largest blogging system on the web (WordPress)! deep enough to run large social networks! It is also simple enough to be the first server-side language for beginners! PHP is free to download and use.
PHP can generate dynamic page content, create, open, read, write, delete and close files on the server, collect form data, send and receive cookies, add, delete and modify data in your database used to control user access, and can encrypt data.
With PHP, developers are not limited to outputting HTML. They can output images or PDF files. They can also output arbitrary text such as XHTML and XML.
PHP runs on different platforms (Windows, Linux, Unix, Mac OS server side).
SQL
SQL (Structured Query Language): is a standard language for accessing and editing databases and was adopted as the standard in 1986. American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and in 1987 the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
SQL can execute queries against a database, retrieve data from a database, insert, update and delete records in a database, and it can also create new Databases and set permissions for tables, procedures, and views.
Although SQL is an ANSI/ISO standard, there are different versions of the SQL language. However, to be compatible with the ANSI standard, they all support at least the most important commands (such as SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, INSERT, WHERE). Likewise, most SQL database programs have their own proprietary extensions in addition to the SQL standard!
HTML
HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is the standard markup language for creating web pages. describes the structure of a web page, which is made up of a series of elements. The elements tell the browser how to display the content, and the elements label parts of the content such as "This is a heading," "This is a paragraph," "This is a link," etc. Since the early days of the World Wide Web, there have been many versions of HTML.
CSS
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): is the language we use to format an HTML document. It describes how HTML elements should be displayed on the screen, on paper or in other media and saves you a lot of work. It can control the layout of several web pages at the same time. CSS is used to define styles for your web pages, including design, layout and display variations for different devices and screen sizes. CSS has solved a big problem HTML should NEVER contain tags to format a web page! HTML was created to describe the content of a web page, such as: <h1>This is a headline</h1> <p>This is a paragraph. </p> As the HTML 3.2 specification requires tags such as <font> and color attributes were added, a nightmare for web developers began. Developing large websites where fonts and color information were added to every single page became a long and costly process. To solve this problem, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) developed CSS. CSS has removed style formatting from the HTML page!
