A Few Examples

Here are some examples of different programming languages. They all just make writing appear on the screen.

PASCAL

write "Programming is easy"

PASCAL is one of the higher level languages and because I haven't done much with it, I can't tell you much about it.


BASIC

print "Programming is fun"

BASIC is a very simple and easy language to learn, it's good for doing text adventures or some simple mathematical programs.


C

printf ("Hello World");

C is the predecessor of C++ and is a little like BASIC, it is good to learn after you have mastered either LOGO or BASIC.


C++

fprintf ("Which one do you like?");

C++ is better to learn once you have learnt C, because of it's complex nature it's very good for creating applications.


C++ (Graphical User Interface)

Label1->Caption=("GUI programs are easy to make");

These programs are made using something like Borland C++ Builder, where you drag and drop text fields etc. onto you application window, then you do the coding to make them work.


LOGO

print "You leave off the last speech mark in LOGO

LOGO is a rather funny language to learn after you have learnt BASIC so learn one or the other, they are both equally hard to learn but LOGO is better for creating graphics.


HTML

<font size=+1>HTML is what you use to create web pages</font>

HTML is very easy to learn, all you have to learn is the tags (what you call the things you create the effects on your web page with) and where to put them. So it might take you as little as a week to learn
