The BEST right now's Borland Delphi, Microsoft Studio.NET, and JAVA.\n\nFor The BASIC - DOS Based : Turbo PASCAL and Turbo C++\n\nBut if you want to learn to become an expert, may be I can suggest you my way to learn about programing.\n\n1st Learn Turbo Pascal 7.1 and Turbo C++ (DOS Based)\nwhy ? because in here you can learn about the basic for Branching (if... then .... ), Looping (do.... while....), Procedure - Function, Reccusion, etc.\nWhy C++ ? it's need if you want to become an expert for JAVA progaming. And also in here try to learn about the basic of Object Oriented programing/OOP. Which need for the 2nd step.\n\nAlso te learn about Programing Algorithm, DATA Structure. This helps you to make a structured Algorithms in your program, easy to develop in next time.\n\nThis first step is a basic of the basic. An old folks said :\n\n"IN OLD TIMES WHEN WE LEARN ABOUT DOS VERY DEEP. SURE ITS SUCKS. BUT WHEN WINDOWS COME OUT, WE CAN BE THE EXPERT OF IT, ALSO POSSIBLE FOR US TO LEARN LINUX, EVEN WORST WE CAN BE A HACKER BY OUR SELF"\n\nAnd I said this one is for REAL.\n\n2nd Learn for Borland Delphi, VB, JAVA\nAfter learning Pascal, C++. You should be already understand about OOP, which it makes you easy to handel Delphi/VB/JAVA. Because in here it's OOP and makes you easy and could make a good program interface using its GUI/Graphical User Interface.\n\nAnd also this Step used at most University for Information system / Computer Science.\n\nIf you having trouble to study about programing, feel free to contact me.\n\nThanks\n\nBelow is a link that will help you to find a free tutorials and tips to learn how to make programs.

It's a programming language that allows people to write programs that will work on any platorm (operating system).

- compiled language -> C, C++, Java \n- low-level language  ->  assembly, machine, x86\n- source code   ->  .php, .py, .pl, .txt, .c, .java (those are extensions)\n- interpreted language -> - perl, php, python, visual basic\n- algorithm ->  flowchart, recipe\n- compiled binary language -> - .exe, .class, .pyc, .com\n- high level languages -> - C/C++, java, php, python, perl, visual basic\n\nAbout compiled languages: java is more often interpreted but can be compiled too\n\nAbout interpreted language -> I would guess this is the answer, I don't really know about all of them, VB is doubful in my mind\n\nAbout low-level language : neither machine or x86 are, but x86 machine-code would.

Not to my knowledge.  Pascal is really not a low enough level language to write an OS in.  Usually it is C, with assembler for the really low level stuff.\n\n-Dio

There is no such language: each language is good in some private case. People answering your question are glad to kill basic and fortran. But note that for simple, even primitive programs (when you want, e.g., quickly test some your idea) basic is a suitable one. Fortran has tons of scientific and engineering libraries and thus is widely used today. I, personally, do not like Pascal - but it is my own phobia :-)

Ada\nA high-level programming language developed by the U.S. Department of Defense along with the European Economic Community and many other organizations. It was designed for embedded applications and process control but is also used for logistics applications. Ada is a Pascal-based language that is very comprehensive.\n\nAda was named after Augusta Ada Byron (1815-1852), Countess of Lovelace and daughter of the poet Lord Byron and mathematician Annabella Milbanke Byron. Ada also became a mathematician and was the colleague of Charles Babbage, who was developing his Analytical Engine. Some of her programming notes for the machine have survived, giving her the distinction of being the first documented programmer in the world.

Are there languages which allow a keyword to be\naccepted as an identifier.\n\nYes, most of the old (incomprehensible) languages did that (like PL/1) i think but i'm not sure, i'm not very used to obsolete languages)....\n\nAh, so modern languages like C are "comprehensible"? Perhaps you should spend some time looking at the submissions to the Obfuscated C contests.\n\nEveryone loves to give PL/I examples like:\n\nIF IF = THEN THEN THEN = ELSE ELSE ELSE = END END\n\n[Actually IF IF = THEN THEN = ELSE; ELSE ELSE = END; END -John]\n\n(which I think is valid PL/I - it's been years, but it's at least close) but that simply proves that you *can* write incomprehensible code in PL/I. So? Show me a language in which you *can't* write incomprehen-sible code.\n\nWhat gets forgotten in all this is the *reason* PL/I didn't reserve its keywords. The PL/I designers knew they were designing what was, for its time, a very large language, which was intended to be useful to very different groups of programmers. History lesson: PL/I and the 360 series were developed at the same time. Originally, PL/I was intended\nto be *the* programming language for the 360. Before the 360, IBM and others in the business had two lines of machines, one for business (for IBM, the 1400 series), one for scientific work (the 709x). Business machines often did decimal arithmetic, had instructions for string manipulation, BCD support, and such, and were programmed in languages like COBOL. Scientific machines usually used binary arithmetic, supported floating point, and were programmed in languages like FORTRAN (US) and Algol (Europe). One fundamental idea in the development 360\nwas to have one line of machines to serve both markets. PL/I was similarly intended to replace both COBOL and PL/I. One of the great comments of the era was that a committee of COBOL and FORTRAN experts sat down to design PL/I - and came up with a language that looked more like Algol than either. \n\nSince PL/I was large and served disparate markets, it was likely that most programmers would only be familiar with a subset of the language. Experience with COBOL - which had a long list of keywords, all reserved  - showed that avoiding all the keywords was a headache. It would be even more so if you had to avoid keywords that only applied to parts of\nthe language you didn't know. So the PL/I designers made the deliberate decision to avoid reserved keywords. Rather than criticizing as incomprehensible a language you know nothing about, take a look at it and find places where the language was made ugly or artificial to avoid reserving keywords. I'll bet you have a lot of trouble doing so.\n\nLest you think that long lists of (reserved) keywords is a feature only of obsolete languages, I suggest you look at the list for C++. I believe C++ reserves more keywords than PL/I had - and perhaps as many as COBOL at its worst did. (Certainly, modern C++ is a larger language the PL/I ever was.)\n\nOver the years, another cost of reserved keywords has become apparent: It becomes difficult to extend the language. You're faced with the Hobson's choice of adding a new readable keyword, thus breaking existing correct code; adding an unreadable keyword that's unlikely to conflict\nwith existing code; or reusing some existing keyword for a new purpose. There's often a bias toward the last of these -and you can see the results in languages like C and C++, where keywords like static and virtual have a variety of only very loosely related meanings.\n\nI suspect the main reason people have generally reserved keywords is two-fold: Language "style" has become fixed, and people want to use lexers and parser generators. Language "style" is hard to pin down, but it's clear that, whatever C "style" is, it's been a big winner - C and\nJava both have C "style". However, C "style" isn't compatible with non- r

Blaise Pascal (pronounced [blez pɑskɑl]), (June 19, 1623 – August 19, 1662) was a French mathematician, physicist, and religious philosopher. He was a child prodigy who was educated by his father. Pascal's earliest work was in the natural and applied sciences where he made important contributions to the construction of mechanical calculators, the study of fluids, and clarified the concepts of pressure and vacuum by generalizing the work of Evangelista Torricelli. Pascal also wrote powerfully in defense of the scientific method.\n\nHe was a mathematician of the first order. Pascal helped create two major new areas of research. He wrote a significant treatise on the subject of projective geometry at the age of sixteen and corresponded with Pierre de Fermat from 1654 on probability theory, strongly influencing the development of modern economics and social science.\n\nFollowing a mystical experience in late 1654, he abandoned his scientific work and devoted himself to philosophy and theology. His two most famous works date from this period: the Lettres provinciales and the Pensées. However, he had suffered from ill-health throughout his life and his new interests were ended by his early death two months after his 39th birthday.
