Linux supports any written language: it understands Unicode natively, so it can display the characters of any language with the appropriate locales included.
As far as programming languages, Linux is written in C, but almost any language, from assembly to C to C++ to Python to Perl to .NET can be used on it.

What is the difference between C and Linux?
There is very little difference in the C compiler between Unix and Linux; in some cases (the gcc compiler) it is the same. The differences come in when using system calls; some system calls do not exist in Unix or Linux, although most do. The program I work on compiles the same way (for the most part) between all commercial versions of Unix and several variants of Linux. In other words, the code is fairly portable across platforms.
What is the importance of Linux shell?
Linux shell is a programming language. its fully different from others progrmming language. the script which is used in Linux quite tough to remember if we comparison to other programming laguages.
What does the C language have to do with the success of Linux?
Very little. C is a very common language to write operating systems in.
Socket programming is done better and easy on Linux or Tcl?
Linux is a kernel; Tcl is a scripting language. They are not mutually exclusive, and one does not obviate or replace the other.
What Services are needed to program in Linux?
To program in linux, you just have to pick out a programming language, and use your favorite text editor or IDE to start programming. Most prodominantly, programs are written in C or C++ and can be compiled with the Gnu C Compiler (gcc) or g++ if your program is in an interpreted language, such as perl or python, you just have to make sure you have the interpreter installed.
Which programming language is used to create UI windows from scratch in Linux?
Most programs in Linux are written using C or C++.
What programming language is ubuntu 12.04 written in?
Linux operating systems utilize many languages. The kernel is mostly written in C.
What is language migrator?
language migrator makes a program compatible to all the operating systems. For example a program written in windows can run in linux using language migrator.
In what Language is Linux written?
C with a small smattering of assembler for the boot loader and some architecture-specific optimisations.
Can you install C language in Linux?
C isn't a program, or something you install; it is a programming language for writing software. Linux and most of the programs that run on it were written in C, and a C compiler and libraries are supplied with most systems, or are readily available.
What language was to write Linux?
Linus Torvalds wrote the Linux kernel in C. Other components written by other contributors for other distributions may be in C or C++.

c
What is the native language of Linux OS?
Technically? Most Linux development is US English. However, Linux distributions almost invariably deploy gettext, which changes the native language of the system to whatever the user needs.
What is the Linux anaconda?
There is no Linux anaconda, but there's a programming language named after a kind of reptile that works in many platforms, including Linux - Python.
What code does Linux use?
If you mean what language is Linux written in, then it is written primarily in C, with architecture-specific components written in Assembly and many device drivers are written in C++. Mind you, that's the operating system layer (Kernelspace) and not always what you'll find in userspace, where a lot of software is written from languages as low-level as Assembly to as high level as Python and many mixtures in between. If you mean encoding, Linux uses just about any standard encoding you can think of, but usually just defaults to UTF-8. If you mean source code, Linux uses its own.
