EVOLUTION OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
Programming languages and in the software technologies to
develop modern and complex software has evolved in steps during last five
decades.
when computers were
in the initial phase of development there were no programming language were
available like today and software were written using computer own binary
language called machine language. To overcome the difficulties in writing
program in machine language, symbolic language has evolved with the different
symbols or codes of operation.
It is very difficult to use assembly language for the common
people as it need detailed knowledge of computer system which result in
development of higher level programming language like BASIC, COBOL,FORTEAN, C.
All of these languages follow the procedure approach for the
development which known as procedure programming languages.
