Generation of programming languages
In the early days of programming languages, i.e., writing programs for computers to solve problems using machine language was cumbersome, time-consuming, and limited in scope. But today's computers have artificial intelligence. That is, people do not have to memorize thousands of instructions or commands to solve computer problems, they do not have to follow specific rules (grammar). Currently, computers can also recognize human speech and solve problems according to the instructions.
In addition to computers, there have been various types of development, contraction, modification and expansion of programming languages at different times or stages in the field of such improvement and development of programming languages. The advent of today's simple, efficient and universal programming languages has basically crossed 5 generations. The stages are—
1st generation: Machine language is called 1st generation language. Representing Binary 0 or 1 by ON-OFF state of Electrical Signal, programming by turning various instructions into opcodes is called first level programming language. It is also called low level language.
2nd generation: Assembly language is called 2nd generation language. Binary upcode is represented by simple symbols and used as instructions to design the program. If so, it is called a 2nd generation programming language.
3rd generation: Mid level language is called 3rd generation language. Assembly language and high level language are closely represented when the program is designed using instructions in such language. or mid level language (3rd generation or mid level language) C-programming (C-programming) is called mid level language (Mid level language).
Fourth stage (4th generation): High level language (High level language) is called fourth generation language (4th generation language). If programming is designed using simple, understandable and universal instructions for people, it is called 4th generation programming language or high level language. FORTRAN, BASIC, COBOL etc. High level language.
Fifth stage (5th generation): The languages related to Data Base Management are called fifth generation language (5th generation language). Data Base Management language is used to effectively and efficiently program various types of operations such as Traversing Searching Sorting, Indexing, Inserting, Deleting, Merging etc. Like dBase, Fox pro, SQL Oracle etc.
Sixth generation (6th generation): Artificial intelligence language (Artificial Intelligence-Al) is the creation of this generation. Languages of this generation are well-known for performing the most convenient and shortest-time problem-solving processes. Like LISP Prolog etc.
