Chapter 9 ProgrammingLanguages
OBJECTIVES Distinguish between machine, assembly, and high-level languages. Understand the process of creating and running a program. Distinguish between the different categories of languages:procedural, object-oriented, functional, declarative, and special. Become familiar with elements of the procedural language C. Have a vision of computer language evolution. After reading this chapter, the reader should be able to:
9.1 EVOLUTION
Computer language –a set of predefined words that are combined into a program according to predefined rules (syntax). Evolution of computer languages
Each computer has its ownmachine language, which is made of streams of 0s and 1s. Note: The only language understood by a computer is machine language.

Symbolic language –simply mirrored the machine languages using symbols to represent the various machine language instructions. • Assembler –a special program to translate symbolic code into machine language. • Assembly language

High-Level language – • Portable to many different computers • Allow programmer to concentrate on application • Must be converted to machine languages(Compilation) • Natural language –English, French, or Chinese

9.2 BUILDING A PROGRAM
Building a program • Writing and Editing • Compiling • Linking • Running • Load • Execute
Building a program Source file Object file Assemble all subprograms into final executable program Executable file
9.3 PROGRAM EXECUTION
Program execution • Loader – An OS program to load the program into memory for executing
9.4 CATEGORIES OF LANGUAGES
Procedural language –a set of instructions that are executed one by one from beginning to end unless an instruction forces the control elsewhere. • When programmers need to solve a problem, they should know the procedure to follow. • For each problem, the programmer should carefully design an algorithm, and the algorithm should be carefully translated to instructions. • Imperative language –each instruction is a command to the computer to do some specific task.
Fortran – • For scientific and engineering application • The first high-level language • COBOL – • a business programming language • Pascal – • Structured programming for teaching
C – • High-level instructions (Structured programming for writing UNIX) • Low-level instructions to access the hardware directly and quickly.Closer to assembly language than any other language.A good language for system programmers. • Efficient language; its instructions are short. • Standardized by ANSI and ISO
Procedural language – • Objects – independent from Operations • Objects – passive • Object-Oriented language – • An approach to problem solving that is totally different from procedural language. • Objects – tied together with Operations • Objects – active
C++ - • Developed by Bell Lab. • adds object-oriented features to its predecessor, C. • Java – • Developed by SUN, Based on C and C++ • Java source code files are compiled into a format called bytecode , which can then be executed by a Java interpreter. • Compiled Java code can run on most computers because Java interpreters and runtime environments, known as Java Virtual Machines (VMs), exist for most operating systems. • Programs • Application – a complete stand-alone program that can be run independently. • Applet – embedded in HTML language, stored on a server, and run by a client browser.
In Functional language, a program is considered a mathematical function. • A function is a black boxthat maps a list of inputs to a list of outputs. • LISP – designed by MIT Function in a functional language
Extracting the third element of a list • Rest – extracts all the elements except the first. • First - extracts all the first elements.
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) • A seudolanguage that includes marks that serve as formatting hints and links to other files. • An HTML file is made of text and tags. • An HTML file (page) is stored on the server and can be download by a browser. • Browser – removes the tags and interprets them as either formatting hints or links to other files.
Table 9.1 Common tags Beginning Tag ---------------- <HTML> <HEAD> <BODY> <TITLE> <Hi> <B> <I> <U> <SUB> <SUP> <CENTER> <BR> <OL> <UL> <LI> <IMG> <A> Ending Tag ---------------- </HTML> </HEAD> </BODY> </TITLE> </Hi> </B> </I> </U> </SUB> </SUP> </CENTER> </OL> </UL> </LI> </A> Meaning---------------------------- document document head document body document title different header levelsboldface Italic underlined subscript superscript centered line break ordered list unordered list an item in the list an image an address (hyperlink)

Perl (Practical Extraction and Report Language) • a programming language especially designed for processing text. • one of the most popular languages for writing CGI scripts. • CGI (Common Gateway Interface) programs are the most common way for Web servers to interact dynamically with users. Many HTML pages that contain forms, for example, use a CGI program to process the form's data once it's submitted. • SQL (Structured Query Language) – a language used to answer queries about database.
9.5 A PROCEDURAL LANGUAGE: C
Variables • Variables – names for memory locations. • Each memory location has an address. • Used by the computer internally • Inconvenient for the programmer
Constants • constants – data values that cannot be changed during the execution of a program. • Literal constant – a = 2 * p * r ; • Named constant – constant pi = 3.14; • Symbolic constant - #define taxRate 0.0825
Table 9.2 Arithmetic operators Operator ---------------- + - * / % ---------- ++-- Definition ---------------- Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division (quotient) Division (remainder) ----------------------- Increment Decrement Example---------------------- 3 + 5 2 - 4 Num * 5 Sum / Count Count % 4 ----------------------- Count ++ Count --
Table 9.3 Relational operators Operator ---------------- < <= > >= == != Definition ---------------- Less than Less than or equal to Greater than Greater than or equal to Equal to Not equal to Example---------------------- Num1 < 5 Num1 <= 5 Num2 > 3 Num2 >= 3 Num1 == Num2 Num1 != Num2
Table 9.4 Logical operators Operator ---------------- ! && || Definition ---------------- NOT AND OR Example---------------------- ! ( Num1 < Num2 ) (Num1 < 5 ) && (Num2 > 10 ) (Num1 < 5 ) || (Num2 > 10 )
Table 9.5 Assignment operators Operator ---------------- == += -= *= /= %= Example ---------------- Num = 5 Num += 5 Num -= 5 Num *= 5 Num /= 5 Num %= 5 Meaning---------------------- Store 5 in Num Num = Num + 5 Num = Num - 5 Num = Num * 5 Num = Num / 5 Num = Num % 5
Statement • cause an action to be performed by the program. • translates directly into one or more executable instructions. label: goto label;
Statement • Expression statement – a statement by placing a semicolon(;) after it. a++; b = 4;c = b + c * 4; • Compound statement – a unit of code consisting of zero or more statements.{ x = 1; y = 20;}
Functions • In C, a subroutine is called a function. • A C program is made of one or morefunctions, one and only one of which must be called main. • The execution of the program always starts and ends with main, but this function can call other functions. • The function main is called by the operating system; main in turn calls other functions.When main is complete, control returns to the operating system.
Side effect of a function • Side effect • Is an action that results in a change in the state of the program. • Occurs while the function is executing and before the function returns. • In general, the purpose of a function isAt the same time, a function can have a side effect.
Function declaration • Parameter Passing • Pass by value • Pass by reference Actual parameters Return type Formal parameters Function header Function body
Parameter Passing • Pass by value – a copy of data is created and placed in a local variable in the called function. • Pass by reference – sends the address of a variable to the called function rather than sending its value.
Call by Value main() { int a=1,b=2; swap(a, b); } void swap(int x, int y) { int temp; temp=x; x=y; y=temp; } a b 1 2 1 2 y x temp
Call by Address (Reference) main() { int a=1,b=2; swap(&a, &b); } void swap(int *x, int *y) { int temp; temp=*x; *x=*y; *y=temp; } a b 1000 2000 1 2 *y *x 1000 2000 y x temp
for loop False
Recursion • C language supports recursion. • A function in C can call itself. • int fac(int n){ if (n == 0) return(1); else return( n * fact(n-1) );}
