Programming languages are divided into five different generations. A programming language consists of the symbols, letters and numbers used to communicate with computers.
Probably the same thing as was used in second generation computers.
High level programming languages are used to instruct computers to perform complex tasks with a minimum number of instructions.
That word is being used to describe a person that is fluent in five languages. It is NOT (yet) found in the Urban Dictionary or other online dictionaries that I have just accessed.
by technology through the first 3 generations, after that there is some disagreement.
Linux and Unix were the two computers operating systems made in start. The languages used were BCPL in 1967 and B in 1970's respectively.
Mostly the hardware technology they were built with.
Machine codeAssembly LanguageFORTRANCOBOLetc.There were actually quite a few languages used in the first generation, but most were not standardized and often designed to solve special problems, not general purpose languages.
None. Analog computers are "programmed" by wiring them up with cables and jumper wires. On some the program is even built in at design and cannot be changed.
Languages can be categorized into spoken, written, signed, and programming languages. Spoken languages are oral communication systems, written languages use characters and symbols to represent words, signed languages use gestures and signs, and programming languages are used to write instructions for computers.
Third Generation Languages are English-like languages, which have keywords the same as or similar to everyday English words. This makes them a lot easier to learn than the earlier generations of languages. Some examples areFORTRAN IVCOBOLCRPGPL/1AlgolJOVIALCMS-2BASICAPLSimulaFORMACSNOBAL
