Programming language:

A programming language is a computer


language programmers use to develop software programs, scripts, or other sets
of instructions for computers to execute.
Although many languages share similarities, each has its own syntax. Once a
programmer learns the languages rules, syntax, and structure, they write the source
code in a text editor or IDE. Then, the programmer often compiles the code
into machine language that can be understood by the computer. Scripting languages,
which do not require a compiler, use an interpreter to execute the script.

How many programming languages are there? 


The history of programming languages actually dates back further than you might think.
Early computer codes date back to the early 1800s, and since then, we’ve created
nearly 9000 different programming languages.
Of course, many of these languages were specific to particular machines and functions
and aren’t used any more. What’s more, it wasn’t until the 1940s that the first modern
computers were created. However, many modern programming languages have their
roots in Ada Lovelace’s first machine algorithm, developed for Charles Babbage’s
Difference Machine in 1843.

Today, people still use a vast array of different coding and programming languages.
However, the list of the most popular ones spans around 150.

Why are there so many programming


languages? 
As we explored in our post on how to learn to code, programming languages act as
an intermediary between human language and the language of computers (binary). In
the modern world, we have all kinds of digital devices that perform many different
functions. As such, programming languages are needed for all sorts of purposes. 

Some languages are easier to use and understand for programmers (high-level
languages) but offer less control over computers. Others are more machine-friendly
(low-level languages), making them faster to execute and more memory-efficient, but
harder for humans to understand. 
You’ll also find that many coding languages exist to perform specific functions. Whether
for particular machines or tasks, these can be quite niche and varied. 

What are the most popular programming


languages?
There is a useful guide for keeping track of the programming languages that are the
most popular. The TIOBE Programming Community index tracks these rankings
monthly, based on the number of skilled engineers world-wide as well as things like
available courses and third-party vendors. 

At the time of writing, some of the top programming languages include:

 C
 Java 
 Python
 C++
 C# 
 Visual Basic 
 JavaScript
 PHP
 SQL
 Assembly language
 R
 Groovy 

You’ll notice this list doesn’t include two languages you may have heard of – HTML and
CSS. These two languages determine much of the structure and style of webpages.
However, that’s all they do; they don’t contain instructions and statements like those
listed above, and so aren’t usually considered as programming languages. 

That being said, if you’re hoping to code for the web or use languages such as
JavaScript, you’ll want to have a good understanding of both HTML and CSS. 
Programming Languages for Game
Development
While arguably most programming languages can be used to
create games, including high-level languages like Python, some choices do have
more benefits than others.

 JavaScript:
 Is commonly known as one of the core pillars of web development. It first
appeared in 1995 and was designed to suit the new ECMAScript specifications that
were attempting to standardize the web and web browsers.  While HTML informs web
layouts and CSS informs web aesthetics, JavaScript is the true computer programming
language that breathes life into websites, adding most amounts of interactivity you see
on a day to day basis.

However, with the emergence of HTML5, JavaScript has also become the core pillar of
HTML5 game development in terms of programming languages.  As it was originally
designed with both object-oriented and event-driven systems for web user interaction,
this made it the perfect choice to extend for games.  Additionally, with Flash now being
obsolete, it also made way for these sorts of HTML5 games to rise up and become the
mainstay of browser-based game development. As HTML5 games are based on the
web, JavaScript makes it easy to make browser-based games and mobile games.

 Given JavaScript is a core part of the web, it’s easy to integrate such games with
JavaScript-based frameworks and libraries, like Node.js and Express, for
multiplayer game creation.
 HTML5 games are generally the easiest to share since they can be hosted
directly on a website for anyone to visit.
 JavaScript is generally less resource-intensive for game development, meaning
it’s great if you don’t have a powerful computer to develop games on.
 Since JavaScript is an extremely stable programming language due to its need
for the web, HTML5 games are easier to maintain and don’t require the same
sort of updating games made with engines do.

Cons:
 Options for 3D graphics are limited to specific frameworks, generally forcing most
people to rely on 2D graphics for their games.
 It is a rather high-level programming language, so it isn’t as efficient as other
programming languages on this list in terms of how fast it performs tasks.
 Due to not being as efficient, HTML5 games have more limits in terms of scope
and size of the games you can make.
 While JavaScript itself receives lots of support for web development, HTML5
game communities are a bit smaller compared to other popular programming
languages and engines.
 C#:
C# is a general-purpose programming language created in 2000 by Microsoft with
the specific intent of working with their .NET framework.  Given the popularity of C+
+ and Java, it was designed to take the best of both programming languages and
combine it into a new, easy-to-read, object-oriented programming language that had
great cross-platform capabilities.  However, it also strove to keep businesses in mind
so that it could be easily used for software development.
As for games, C# also found a home in the industry due to its relative efficiency and
scalability.  In particular, it became the default programming language for the
popular Unity engine, with all modern Unity libraries being built around the language. 
Given Unity is used for a large percentage of the game industry, this has given it a tight
hold in this regard.

Pros:
 Comparatively, C# is a very beginner-friendly language with fairly easy to read
code.
 Automatic memory management means you don’t have to do a deep dive into
those aspects and can focus more on just developing your game.
 As a language developed by Microsoft, it is a top choice for games on Windows
PCs.  However, it is capable of working on most modern systems.
 C# is a type-safe language, meaning your games will have more security and
won’t exhibit tons of unexpected behaviors.
 It is relatively efficient and scalable, meaning it’s well-suited when used to create
game projects.

Cons:
 With some exceptions, outside of game engines, C# isn’t widely used for games. 
Thus, an engine is almost required in this case for community support.
 While more efficient than JavaScript, it isn’t as efficient as C++ or Java, meaning
game performance can suffer if the game is sufficiently complex.
 As the language was designed to work specifically with Microsoft’s .NET
framework, it isn’t as flexible as other programming languages on the list.
 In the business world, while in high-demand for general business applications, it
isn’t as demanded for game developers as C++ is.
 C++:
The C++ programming language was originally called “C with classes.”  It was
created to take modern principles, like object-oriented computer programming, and
combine it with the low-level features seen by languages such as C.  In so doing, it
would allow users to more easily create their programs with readability, while not losing
advanced features such as memory management.
Given its general-purpose nature, C++ has, all around, become one of the most widely
used programming languages, having applications for software and – as is the topic of
this article – games.  In fact, many modern engines, such as Unreal Engine, are built
on the language, so learning to code C++ is considered key by many professional
developers. Of the programming languages, then, this can be considered one of the
most commonly used in general.

Pros:
 Being so close to C, C++ is amazingly efficient and is one of the fastest
programming languages to choose if you have lots of complex tasks to run in
your games.
 C++ has perhaps the largest community and tutorial support given its universal
usage almost everywhere.
 Its ability to do things like memory management is very handy if you want tighter
control on game performance.
 It has a large amount of scalability and can be used for both small and large
game projects.
 It is platform-independent, meaning you can port projects around very easily
regardless of OS.

Cons:
 While there are plenty of game engines to use, finding lighter-weight frameworks
for C++ game development can be a challenge.  You also can’t easily develop
games with JUST C++.
 Of the languages on this list, C++ is probably the most difficult to learn and is the
least beginner-friendly.
 Though C++ gives you more control over memory management and the like, this
comes at the cost of lacking automatic garbage collection – which means more
work on the developer’s end.
 As an older language, some modern features seen in other languages are not
present or standardized with C++.
 Since C++ allows developers to do more, this also allows less security – meaning
you could get tons of unexpected behavior in your games without intention.
 Java:
Created in 1995, Java is an object-oriented programming
language created for general computer programming.  The design principle behind the
language was to have it require as few dependencies as possible – especially
compared to other programming languages at the time and even now.  In so doing, this
meant that programs created with Java could easily run on different systems as they
weren’t as dependent on the underlying computer architecture.
Given this cross-platform nature, Java is used fairly extensively for application
development.  However, in the realm of games, it also finds a place.  Though not as
extensively used as other programming languages on this list, quite a number of
desktop games are still made with Java.  In addition, as the top choice programming
language for Android devices, Java is commonly used by a number of developers for
mobile games and apps.

Pros:
 As Java is the foundation for Android devices, it is well-suited to making
mobile games.
 Despite its age, Java is capable of utilizing modern technologies like multi-
threading for better game performance.
 As long as the platform supports JVM, Java games can be run almost
anywhere.  This includes systems like Linux.
 It is well-suited to server development, so multiplayer games can be made
fairly easily with Java without the need for extra libraries and so forth.

Cons:
 Even though successful games have been made with Java, it is not the
standard choice for game development in the eyes of most developers. 
Thus, community support for it in this field is limited.
 Though it does have automatic memory management, it is known to have
some latency issues for games because of that.
 Few engines or libraries specific for game development exist for Java
compared to other languages.
 Most modern consoles do not support JVM, so despite its ability, Java
games are often platform limited in this regard.

 Conclusion:
As we hoped to establish here, there is no wrong or right programming
language to learn to code when it comes to games. All of them have different features,
different target platforms, and different sorts of developers who prefer them.  However,
the collection here is, no doubt, some of the best programming languages you can opt
to learn when it comes to game development. That being said, don’t be afraid to explore
elsewhere as well, as you may find other languages easy to learn and expand your
skills. Many others of the best programming languages still find usage in games, and
there are tons of frameworks and engines available that make use of the different
programming languages available.
Regardless of your choice, each is set to help you develop your game project.  So
whether you pick C# so you can use Unity, want to dive into the challenge of developing
with Java, or something else, learning to code is a profitable skill sure to help you in
your long-time game hobby or career.

Programming Languages for Desktop Apps In


2020
 

There are many language options out there you can consider for desktop apps. For
example, the developers of ScienceSoft leverage C++, .NET, and JAVA to
build desktop applications. In this article, we discuss these languages' main features
and some pros and cons for each of them.

 C++:
C++ is a low-level programming language that adds object-oriented features. It is
also known as "C with Classes". It made its first public appearance in 1985, although it
was designed in 1979 by Bjarne Stroustrup. C++ is usually used for applications that
work directly with hardware and in the gaming industry.
C++ requires relatively low desktop specs to function. It only takes 24 MB ROM memory
and 4 GB RAM. To get maximum productivity, it is a good idea using a multi-core
system. Linux also supports the direct installation and function of C++.

Pros:
 Used by companies like Adobe Systems, Amazon, Facebook, and many others.
 It is lightweight.
 Supports multiple inheritances.

Cons:
 It is challenging to learn.
 You need to manage memory manually.
 It is not highly promoted like C# (Microsoft) and Java (Oracle), which means
there are no releases from these big companies to make developers' life more
comfortable.

 C#(.NET):
C# made its way into the programming world in 2002, and it is an
object-oriented programming language. Developed by Microsoft, by using their .NET
framework, it is used as a framework for many other languages as well, so today, it is
used as a general-purpose programming language.
C# requires improved hardware and system features. We would say 20-25 GB of free
disk space for a typical install, but 200 GB or more ROM to function smoothly. Also, a
minimum of 2.5 GB RAM is necessary for function, but 8 GB RAM improves the speed
and accuracy. You should install the .NET framework before starting your desktop app
with C#. There are multiple tools for developing desktop apps like Visual Studio,
ByteScout, and ReSharper.

Pros:
 Just like Java, C# is a compiled language. It means that the program execution is
fast and multi-threaded.
 C# is easily integrated into windows, which means it doesn't require any special
software or frameworks to run.
 It comes in handy when a team of developers is working on one project. The
code is simple enough to integrate and understand.

Cons:
 The most considerable disadvantage of C# by far is that Microsoft has terminated
support for some of the older versions of .NET frameworks, which might create a
problem for developers in the long run.
 C# requires the windows platform as a host to work. It is not the right choice for
programmers working in a Linux environment.

 Java:
Java is one of the most famous and most learned languages around
the globe. It's celebrating 24 years of successful life-cycle this year. Still today, many
developers consider it the best language for developing desktop applications. According
to the TIOBE Index, it is the second most used language after C, and it has been in the
top 2 since the beginning of the Index.
Java lies in the middle from a technical and functional point of view. You will need 8 GB
of RAM to process its applications effectively. 8 GB RAM is recommended for running,
but it can run on relatively lesser specs. It requires at least 50 GB ROM to operate
successfully. Furthermore, JDK (Java Development Kit) or JRE (Java Runtime
Environment) are a must prerequisite have numerous tools used for development. For
example, NetBeans is a great tool if you are starting as a Java developer.

Pros:
 Java is a stable language due to the frequent updates and features added to it.
 Java is a multi-thread compiled language. It makes the execution and debugging
of large-scale applications convenient and more accurate.
 Java is an open-source programming language, which means you get tons of
libraries and codes that makes it easier to grasp.
 Reusability is a vital advantage of JAVA. It is an object-oriented programming
language so that developers can use functions and methods repeatedly.
 Java is platform-independent from where it was developed. Its programs can be
easily accessed on any OS or processor since the java virtual machine can identify
platforms and convert the codes accordingly.

Cons:
 Not a language to use for developing eye-catching GUI's. Even though there are
some frameworks for user interface development, they aren't mature enough to
handle complex UI's.
 Java code is hard to understand because it is verbose. It may hamper the
debugging and testing phases.

 Python:
Python is a relatively new programming language since it was released
in 1989. Still, it has got the attention of programmers and organizations after 2000,
when new features and large-scale computations were added. A python is an object-
oriented programming language.
The specifications required by Python are feasible: It needs 1 GB RAM to run
accurately; in general, it requires 5 GB ROM; and runs on 64-bit operating systems.

Pros:
 The most noticeable advantage of Python, without a doubt, is the ease of use.
New users can learn Python faster than any other language.
 It is an open-source language with hundreds of built-in libraries; new features are
being added to the language continuously, reducing the programmer's efforts.
 It is paving the way to IOT (Internet of things), machine learning, and data
science projects.

Cons:
 Unlike other compiled languages, Python is an interpreted language, which may
reduce speed. For example, it is slower than C or C++.
 Python interprets one thread (instruction) simultaneously, and single-threaded
programs can cause a decline inefficiency. It needs a lot of memory to perform
complicated tasks.
 Not an excellent option to work with the problematic database.
An excellent tip for choosing the best programming language for your upcoming projects
is keeping the scope and complexity (but also making sure you don't have to move to
another one during your project in case of lesser functionality), security, and cost factors
under consideration.

In this article, we have curated a list of top 15 mobile app programming languages
which are best language for apps and also will help you choose the best quickly and get
you started with your mobile app.

 JavaScript
William Ting’s once said, “JavaScript will stay relevant as long as people use
the internet.” JavaScript is best for cross-platform app development, mobile apps used
for various platforms, and web browsing. It smoothly runs in other environments, outside
of browsers, and can be compiled from a wide array of programming languages. So, my
vote for the best programming language is for JavaScript.
JavaScript Pros
 Versatile and Flexible language and can used in many ways through Node.js
 Faster on the client-side browsing and don’t need to be compiled.
 Straightforward to work with and easy to control.
 No set standard and plenty of room for variation.

JavaScript Cons
 Is vulnerable and can be exploited for malicious purpose in some cases.
 You can encounter some browser support issues in some cases.
 Server-side scripts always provide the same output and client-side is a bit
unpredictable.

 Kotlin

Said to be the advanced version of Java – Kotlin is a statistically typed programming


language used for developing modern Android applications. Kotlin is a really best
language for apps. Kotlin has the potential to influence other programming languages
such as JAVA to make high-performing and robust apps. Some popular apps built-in
Kotlin are Trello, Evernote, Coursera, and many more.

 Some bugs may occur while running JAVA in a virtual machine – JVM
 Poorly written class libraries and complex syntax in some cases
 Complex implementations due to poor garbage collection
Efficient programming language

ERP software matches today’s fast-paced business environment and simplifies


many business processes. Let’s consider the most common languages to create
valuable IT products.

 Java 
Perfectly works for big enterprises. This is architecturally-neutral, handy,
dynamic, and efficient language. It is commonly used with cloud solutions and offers a
lot of flexibility. Java is aimed to work across different software platforms.
Another benefit is simplicity in coding and high UI for both desktop and mobile
experiences. Java brings security standards, so companies may download anything
from non-trusted resources without any damages.

Java has good networking abilities, and companies can reuse the codes for any
business needs. Besides, it is called best programming language for cloud computing.

 PHP 
Is an open-source programming language that is helpful on Web servers? It
is portable, fast and accurate with self-documenting features. The latest PHP version
applies less memory and allows using autonomous classes. Additionally, error handling
property simplifies the process. In addition, PHP allows creating strong algorithms to
meet large organizations’ expectations.
If you look for the best platform for ERP development, explore Symfony, Laravel,
CodeIgniter, CakePHP, etc. These frameworks have proven their importance and are
the most popular.

 SQL: 
Self-governed features exclude system failures and refine productivity.
Automated backup delivers data accessibility and restoration eliminates manual tasks.
The main goal is to retrieve and upgrade records from databases while saving all the
needed data. SQL is maintained by non-relational and relational cloud database
services.
 Python
This is an interpreted language, goal-oriented, easy to read and use. It keeps in
structured and functional programming methods and may be used to byte-code for
creating large applications.

Python offers high-level dynamic types of data and maintains its checking. Moreover, it
serves auto garbage collection.

 Ruby
Python and Ruby may be perceived as the best language for CRM with quick
databases. Ruby often used as a Web back end and has a few useful features such as
dynamic typing and modules to isolate extensions from each other. This is a self-hosting
language with an ability to broaden classes and modules.

 JavaScript
The main advantage of using JavaScript is code compatibility: isomorphic applications
that can run both server-side and client-side. ES6 has needed syntax for creating
function commands.

It is aimed to supplement animations, automation and create interactive websites. Some


web developers believe that this is the best programming language for business
applications because of their wide features for simple and difficult tasks. The client-side
option makes it possible to reach remotely all the scripts.

 C++
The main attribute of C++ is a list of predefined classes that may be used multiple
times. It involves user-defined classes to launch specific functionality. The most
common use of C++ is for Android development.

There are many opinions about the best programming language for enterprise web
applications and the best programming language for business applications. It is
challenging to pick one, so read our brief overview and pick the language that fits your
demands and expectations.
CONCLUSION

After researching the languages trend and descend. I wittiness that the beginner should
start with the language which have strong background and wide support. This helps the
beginners at the start and then we can try different programming languages because
different platform, users and system demands different language approach. As I have
researched on different languages I think I will like to work on
…………………………………………… because it’s my passion and no one can work
without passion in the programming field . But everyone should have spirit to learn new
languages as with traditional languages that are strong nowadays .like
