Programming languages Programming is defined as the process of using logic to
perform specific operations and functions in computers, and these logical
operations are implemented in specific programming languages,[1] which are a set
of instructions and commands written in a specific way to create a specific
program,[2] and directing it to the computer for execution, [3] Programming
languages also regulate the way electronic devices communicate with each
other; such as robots and peripheral devices such as printers and other types of
other smart devices, as well as allowing humans to communicate with the
machine,[4] and although many programming languages have many similar
characteristics, each language has its own unique and distinctive structure,[3]
and each language includes a distinct set of their keywords to build a specific
program . The history of programming languages The history of the emergence of
programming languages goes back more than 125 years before the appearance of the
computer itself. Where programming languages first appeared in some industrial
uses; It was adopted to control the production of textiles by designing holes in
a certain way on different types of cards, so that those cards are changed to
produce different types of textiles. The real emergence of the first programming
language in 1956 AD; Where a team from (IBM) developed a programming language
known as (FORTRAN), then followed in 1958 AD the emergence of the second oldest
programming language known as (LISP), and successively the emergence of various
programming languages throughout the twentieth century, where appeared some of
the programming languages that are still used Until now as a programming
language (Basic) which was invented in 1964. The seventies witnessed the
emergence of a new concept of programming languages, which is the concept of
object-oriented programming, where these languages were designed to direct
them to the things that people use,[6] and during that period many different
programming languages appeared, many of which are still in use today. The
Pascal language, which was developed in 1971 by Niklaus Wirth, and the C
programming language, which appeared in 1972, while the database programming
language (SQL) developed by Edgar Code in 1974, and this language is still one
of the languages The main and important task until now, as the programming
language (C++) appeared in the year 1979. The spread of the Internet led to the
development of many programming languages;[6] Tim Berners-Lee developed the HTML
programming language (HTML) in the year 1990 AD, followed in the following year
by the emergence of two of the most important programming languages in the
world, the Python programming language and the Visual Basic programming
language. (Visual Basic), and the year 1995 was the year of the emergence of the
Java programming language, which was introduced by programmers at Sun
Microsystems,[7] and at the present time there are tens of thousands of
different programming languages, as well as the continuous development of new
languages. Designers believe that it will contribute to solving any problem in
human life
