Programming Languages

ALGOL
ALGOL (Algorithmic Language) is the name of two computer programming languages that have had a significant impact on the design of modern programming languages.
Assembly Language
Assembly language is a low-level programming language that is one step above machine language. Each statement in an assembly language corresponds to a machine language statement, enabling hardware-level control with more readability compared to pure binary code.
FORTRAN
FORTRAN (Formula Translation) is a high-level computer programming language developed by IBM in the late 1950s. It was the first programming language that allowed programmers to express calculations through mathematical formulas.
JAVA
An object-oriented programming language created by Sun Microsystems, Java is a device-independent language which means that programs compiled in Java can be run on any computer..
Pascal
Pascal is a high-level computer programming language developed by Niklaus Wirth designed to encourage structured programming and data structuring. It has played a significant role in teaching and is noteworthy for its support for structured and modular programming.
Program
A multi-faceted term with different meanings across various domains, including organized events and computer instructions.
RPG (Role-Playing Game and Report Program Generator)
RPG refers to two distinct concepts: a genre of games where players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting, and a high-level programming language developed by IBM in the 1960s to simplify business programming applications.
