What are the main Programming Domains
sākt mācīties
Scientific applications, Business applications, Artificial intelligence, Systems programming, Web Software
What are the main characteristics of Scientific applications
sākt mācīties
Large numbers of floating point computations; use of arrays
Give an example scientific domain language
sākt mācīties
Fortran (Formula Translating System, IBM)

Produce reports, use decimal numbers and characters
Give an example of a Business applications language.
sākt mācīties
COBOL (COmmon Business-Oriented Language)
What are the main characteristics of Artificial intelligence domain languages?
sākt mācīties
Symbols rather than numbers manipulated; use of linked lists
give an example of an artificial intelligence language
sākt mācīties
LISP (LISt Processing)
What are the main characteristics of Systems programming languages

Need efficiency because of continuous use
Give an example of a Systems programming language
sākt mācīties
Give an example of a Systems programming angļu valodā
C
What are the main characteristics of Web Software
sākt mācīties
Eclectic collection of languages: markup (e.g., HTML), scripting (e.g., PHP), general-purpose (e.g., Java)
What are the main Language Categories by Uses?
sākt mācīties
Machine languages, Assembly languages, High-level languages, System programming languages, Scripting languages, Domain-specific languages
Describe Machine languages
sākt mācīties
[1] hardware implemented languages. [2] The set of the instructions of a processor. [3] Machine code is usually written in hexdecimal numbers.
Describe Assembly languages
sākt mācīties
[1] machine codes are wrapped with alphanumeric symbols so that the instructions are more readable. [2] They also have labeled storage locations, jump targets and subroutine starting addresses.
Describe High-level languages
sākt mācīties
[1] Machine-independent, similar to natural language.[2] Are usually characterised with variables, types, subroutines, functions, constants[3] complex expressions[4] control structures,(conditionals, switches, loops)[5] composite types (arrays, structs)
What does machine independant mean?
sākt mācīties
independent of the machine instructions of any particular processors)
Describe System programming languages
sākt mācīties
[1] deal with: memory and process management, I/O operations, device drivers, operating systems.
Describe Scripting languages
sākt mācīties
[1] used to write programs in system administration [2] analyse / transform large amounts of regular text info [3] act as“glue”between different apps [4] make simple GUI to control an existing app [5] interpreted not compiled [6] Good string processing
Describe Domain-specific languages
sākt mācīties
unlike general purpose languages, they are used in highly special-purpose areas only, e.g., PostScript - a language for creating vector graphics for the electronic publishing (Adobe).
What are the major Categories by Paradigms
sākt mācīties
Procedural, Functional, Logic
Describe Procedural Paradigm
sākt mācīties
[1] A program is built from one or more procedures (subroutines or functions) [2] Central features are variables, assignment statements, and iteration [3] Include languages that support object-oriented programming [4] Include scripting languages
Give some examples of Procedural languages
sākt mācīties
C, Java, Perl, JavaScript, Visual BASIC. NET, C++,...
Describe Functional Paradigm
sākt mācīties
Main means of making computations is by applying functions to given parameters
Give examples of some Functional languages
sākt mācīties
Haskell, LISP, Scheme, ML (MetaLanguage), F#, etc
Describe Logic paradigms
sākt mācīties
Rule-based (rules are specified in no particular order)
give an example of logic language
sākt mācīties
Prolog
What are the categories when organiseng languages by How Tasks are Specified
sākt mācīties
Imperative languages or Declarative languages
Describe imperative languages
sākt mācīties
[1] computing tasks are defined as sequences of commands (statements) for the computer to perform. [2] a program in such language tells computer what to do step-by-step (to make the computer change from one state to the next).
Give example of Imperative langauage
sākt mācīties
procedural languages
Describe Declarative languages
sākt mācīties
[1] programs describe their desired results without explicitly listing commands or steps that must be performed.
give examples of declarative programming languages
sākt mācīties
functional and logical programming languages belong to this category.
