2. Introduction to Computer Languages Computer languages are the building blocks for our digital world. They allow us to communicate with computers, enabling us to create software, applications, and websites. VT by Vishal Tiwari

3. History of Computer Languages The earliest computers used machine language, a series of 0s and 1s. Later, assembly language was developed, offering more human-readable instructions. 1 1940s Machine language 2 1950s Assembly language 3 1960s High-level languages, such as FORTRAN and COBOL, emerge. 4 1970s Structured programming and object-oriented programming paradigms gain traction. 5 Present Day Modern languages like Python, Java, and JavaScript are widely used in various fields.

4. Types of Computer Languages Computer languages can be categorized into several types based on their purpose and level of abstraction. 1 Scripting Languages Designed for automating tasks, such as web development and data processing. 2 Markup Languages Used to structure and format documents, such as HTML and XML. 3 Data Definition Languages Define the structure of databases and data types. 4 Query Languages Used to retrieve and manipulate data from databases, like SQL.

5. High-Level vs. Low-Level Languages High-level languages are more human-readable and easier to use, while low-level languages are closer to the machine's instructions. High-Level Closer to human language. Easy to learn and understand. Widely used for general-purpose programming. Low-Level Closer to machine language. Difficult to read and write. Used for specific tasks, such as system programming and embedded systems.

6. Compiled vs. Interpreted Languages Compiled languages are translated into machine code before execution, while interpreted languages are executed line by line. Compiled Languages Translated into machine code. Interpreter Executes code line by line. Machine Code Executable by the computer.

7. Syntax and Structure of Computer Languages Computer languages have specific rules governing their syntax and structure, like grammar and punctuation in human languages. Keywords Reserved words with specific meanings. Operators Symbols that perform operations on data. Data Types Specify the type of data, such as integers, strings, or booleans. Variables Named containers for storing data.

8. Common Programming Paradigms Programming paradigms provide a framework for structuring and organizing code. Paradigm Description Procedural Code is organized as a sequence of steps. Object-Oriented Code is organized around objects, which have data and methods. Functional Code is expressed as a series of functions. Logic Code is based on logical rules and predicates.

9. The Future of Computer Languages Computer languages continue to evolve, with new languages and paradigms emerging to address the challenges of the digital age. Artificial Intelligence AI-powered languages and frameworks are likely to play a significant role in the future. Quantum Computing Quantum computing will require new languages optimized for handling quantum operations. Blockchain Blockchain technology will continue to drive the development of languages for secure and decentralized applications.
