Forms of programing

Forms of programing

1. Machine languages

   • Allows to code instructions directly into the processor.
     • Sends sequences and patterns of bits through the processor.

2. Assembly languages

   • Uses codes to modify processor registers and perform functions

3. Interpreted Languages

   • Easier to read
     • Slower than machine languages
   • Example: JavaScript

4. Compiled languages

   • Takes instructions written by a human
     • Sends it to a compiler
       • It converts it to native code to the hardware
         • Creates an executable program (.exe)
   • Faster
   • Example: C

5. Object oriented languages

   • Treats everything as an object
     • Objects can store values perform actions and accept and return values.
   • Examples: Java, C#

6. Languages for data

   • Example: SQL
   • Ask a database a question
     • Gives you a dataset as a result

7. Functional programming

   • Perform transformation in values
     • Takes a value and modifies it.
   • Examples: Haskell, Scala and F#

8. Scripting languages

   • Allows systems to execute commands, install software and perform maintenance
   • Examples: Powershell, Perl and Bash
