Write types of procedural language.

A procedural language is also called Third Generation language. In 3GL the programs are already defined in set of instruction. These languages tell the computer what to do and how to do.Procedural language is a category of High level language. High level language is a type of language that is close to human language and far from machine language. The instruction in high level language is written in English words like a input and output. High level language is easy to understand, maintain and modify.  Some most popular procedural languages are as follow

Categories of Procedural Language.

• FORTRAN
• BASIC
• COBOL
• PASCAL
• C

FORTRAN

The complete name of FORTRAN in FORmula TRANslation. Its used for scientific purpose. It is also use for engineering use. For the previous thirty years FORTRAN is used for such projects of the design of bridges and aeroplane structures, it is also used for factory automation control.

BASIC

The complete name of BASIC language of Beginner All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. The BASIC language was first time introduced in 1960. This language is mostly used student for solving their simple problems. This language is mostly used for education problems. This language is easy to understand.

COBOL

The complete name of COBOL language is Common Business Oriented language. This language is specially designed for the field of Business. COBOL is easy to read and east to maintain. The user can also write easily this language. This language is first time introduce in 1960.

PASCAL

Pascal was the Mathematics of France. PASCAL language assigned in the honor of a French Mathematicians Pascal. This language is used business application and also used 

for Scientific application.

Pascal is  procedural programming language, designed by Niklaus Wirth  to encourage good programming practices using   data structuring and structured programming. 

C

The most popular high level language Now a days is C language. A person who develop the C language is Dennis Ritchie. C language is introduced in 1972.

It also part of UNIX operating system. It provide the facility to wrote both types of software like a application software and system software. That is why C language is also called the middle level language.

Types of Non-Procedural Language:

• SQL
• RPG

SQL

The complete name of SQL is Structured Query Language. It is more famous database query language. Structured Query Language was developed by IBM. It is national stranded by ANSI. ANSI stands for American National Standards Institute. SQL works in database like a Oracle MS SQL server and MS Access etc.

RPG

RPG stands for Report Program Generator. It is most used IBM mid-range computers.  RPG is a type of Non-Procedural.

Types of Object Oriented Programming

The programs written on the basis of object in the technique of object oriented programs. Object is the collection of data, information and functions. It may be a anything means a person, place or thing.

• C++

C++ is a type of object oriented programs. It is improve version of C and first time introduced in 1980 at bell laboratories. It is more powerful and produce the variety of programs.

• Java

Java was designed by Sun Micro-system time it was develop to control the microprocessor used in VCR. java is a high level language and it provide the powerful communication with user by Graphical user interface.

Features of Object oriented programming

• Objects

Object may be a thing, person or any place.

• Classes

OOP provide the facility converts data into groups and classes.

• Real World Modeling

It provide the facility properties and working capabilities. 

• Re usability

 Allow the programmer to reuse data and code.

• Information hiding

It allowed to hide important data from unauthorized person or user.

• Polymorphism

Polymorphism is ability of abject to behave in various paths.
