Programming Languages 2018
Each programming language is vast and somewhat distinct in nature that’s why programmers choose carefully which programming to use or will be convenient and useful for them. Because of this vast nature of each programming language, one must know his/her way around that language before using it to its fullest potential. Throughout this decade and past, there were several programming languages that made revolutionary changes to the software industry with their framework power and made programming so easy to learn and use. Here is our list of top 10 programming languages loved and most used by the developers.
JavaScript, also known as the language of the websites, is one of the most used programming languages as it’s basically everywhere. This is a high-level, dynamic, and interpreted programming language that’s supported by all modern web browsers. It allows the developers to build web applications and add interactive elements to their websites. Its simplicity, OOP support, and powerful frameworks will draw any developer’s attention.
Python is a dynamic and general-purpose language that emphasizes code readability and enables developers to use fewer lines of code. It supports multiple programming paradigms and has a large standard library. Lately, Python is being used extensively in software development and many software companies switched to Python. Developers love this language for clear syntax, good OOP support and great shortcuts.
Java, a general purpose, object-oriented and class-based programming language, is used for creating server-side applications, video games, and mobile applications. As the core of any native Android application is Java, it is very popular among developers and is used extensively. People love Java for its great variety of useful libraries(default and external) and steadily good performance and security. Java community is huge as well, meaning Java fans can always get a lot of support.
Based on C, C++ is a general-purpose programming language that has influenced and inspired many other modern programming languages(e.g. C#, Java). Tons of daily applications, software, drivers, firmwares which we use, are written in C++. It’s considered to be an intermediate level language that has the qualities of both high-level and low-level programming language.
Created by Microsoft, inspired by C and C++, C# (C-Sharp) is a modern, object-oriented, multi-paradigm programming language. It is the heart of Microsoft applications based on the .NET framework. C# inherited many similarities from C and C++ because of that C# gets added attention from C and C++ developers.
PHP: It’s a server-side and general-purpose scripting language designed for especially web development. PHP is considered rather easy to learn and is chosen by most of the web developers. As well developers love that it’s portable, has a lot of high-quality solutions for an array of web problems and has a lot of frameworks.
Ruby, a general purpose and object-oriented programming language, supports multiple programming paradigms and is used to create web applications. Apart from being easy to use, Ruby is known for its power. Ruby on Rails (Rails is a framework) is in high demand these days.
Go, created at Google is open source programming language aimed at making simple, small yet reliable applications. It’s compiled and has features such as garbage collection, memory safety etc. Go is mostly used for web servers, APIs, minimal web application frameworks, etc.
Scala, a general-purpose and object-oriented programming language, has been designed to be concise and fulfill the shortcomings of Java. Its source code is intended to be compiled to Java bytecode to allow the resultant code to run on a Java Virtual Machine. Also, as its name suggests, Scala is designed to grow (scale) with the demand or use.
Swift is a multi-paradigm programming language created by Apple and for Apple. Swift is the top choice for Apple’s iOS and Mac OS X application developers. Though it is one of the youngest programming languages, it has grown exponentially.
you are truly a just right webmaster. The web site loading velocity is amazing. It sort of feels that you are doing any distinctive trick. Furthermore, The contents are masterwork. you have done a great process on this subject!
Every Operating System is good…
And also, it’s what you want to use the OS for, not
“Oh the terminal is so hard” or “Oh my god Windows 10 is crap”…
People can use different OSes for different tasks..
I like Windows.
It’s true that there aren’t as many desktop environments for Windows available. But it’s not true that Windows always stays the same. As you’ve mentioned, the touch screen interface of Windows is something rather new.
“”Stable codebase””: It’s not so much fun getting something to work because of some driver issues. On Windows you won’t run into similar driver issues, so even if Linux has a “”stable codebase”” (which I can neither prove nor disprove) it doesn’t help much if you run into some driver problems you wouldn’t even have on Windows.
“”Linux can be installed on any PC or Mac””: That also applies to Windows.
“”Open source applications availablity””: Again ,that also applies to Windows. And additionally there is also all the closed source applications that only run on Windows but not on Linux, so I don’t see an advantage for Linux here.
“”Large support group””: Might be true but again, since Windows is the most frequently used OS, it’s also very easy to find help online. Probably easier than with Linux because the Windows user base is much larger.
“”The future is transparent””: Windows isn’t open source so your argument is somwhat valid. However, since MS strives to assure that applications are compatible with newer versions of Windows I don’t see a problem here. I can still use Word 97 on Windows 10 and even if MS goes bankrupt tomorrow, I could still use Windows:
