What are BASIC and FORTRAN?
BASIC and FORTRAN are computer programming languages.
What was Fortran designed for?
Because it is one of the fundamental languages of computer programming. It teaches us how we think, but in a computer.
What was the earliest computer languages and were they Binary Code FORTRAN COBOL.?
The oldest computer language is machine code and all computer languages are binary encoded. It's unavoidable on binary machines.
What is readability as a criteria of evaluating programming languages?
Yes. Some computer languages, such as VB, VB.NET, COBOL are designed for business, while Fortran is for engineers and scientists.
Fortran is a low level language?
FORTRAN is a third generation language.Note: I don't know what these generations are, but I'm quite sure that Fortran is one of the oldest high-level programming languages, as are Cobol and Algol.
What are BASIC and FORTRAN?
BASIC and FORTRAN are computer programming languages.
What is the meaning of FORTRAN?
FORTRAN is an abbreviation for FORmula TRANslation. It is a computer programming language.
Which among the following is a Scientific Computer Language?
There are many Scientific Computer languages including Fortran 77, Fortran 90, C, and C++.
What was Fortran designed for?

The oldest computer language is machine code and all computer languages are binary encoded. It's unavoidable on binary machines.
What are types of procedure languages?
Programming languages such as COBOL and FORTRAN are examples of procedure languages.
The full meaning of FORTRAN in computer?
Usually thought to mean "Formula Translation", FORTRAN is a blend word name for a software language and compiler whose original full name was "The IBM Mathematical Formula Translating System". The first FORTRAN compiler was released in April of 1957. In 1991, however, the connection to the original meaning was dropped. So from the Fortran 90 of then to the upcoming Fortran 2008, the name is spelled with only the first letter capitalized.
What has the author Walter S Brainerd written?
Walter S. Brainerd has written: 'Theory of computation' -- subject(s): Sequential machine theory, Recursive functions, Programming languages (Electronic computers) 'Fortran 77 programming' -- subject(s): FORTRAN 77 (Computer program language), Computer programming 'Programmer's guide to F' -- subject(s): F (Computer program language) 'Fortran 77 fundamentals and style' -- subject(s): FORTRAN 77 (Computer program language)
What are the examples of assembly languages?
Fortran & Pascal
What is readability as a criteria of evaluating programming languages?

What are two types of programming languages?
C++, Perl, Fortran
First computer language?
The oldest computer language still in use is Fortran, invented in 1957. The first computer language was assembly language, but the first high level programming language was Plankalkul.
