2. cv • Computer Languages • Declarative • Functional • Object Oriented • Page Description • Procedural • Scripting • Program moves from procedure to procedure in a present order. • use of procedures and functions for control abstraction • A program that describes what computation should be performed and not how to compute it. • Declarative programming often considers programs as theories of a formal logic. • It commonly includes regular expressions, logic programming, and functional programming. • A declarative language describes what it wants to accomplish rather than focusing on how to achieve its goal. • Writing a declarative statements that show a relationship between each other. • Functional Programming is when functions, not objects or procedures, are the fundamental building blocks of a program. • Functions in this sense, not to be confused with C Language functions which are just procedures, are analogous to mathematical equations: they declare a relationship between two or more entities. • Treat everything like object. • Presence of inherited, characteristic, events and functions. • A page description language (PDL) specifies the layout contents and arrangement of a printed page through commands from a computer that the printer carries out. • Hewlett Packard’s Printer Control Language ( PCL ) and Adobe’s PostScript are the two most commonly used PDLs. • A scripting language is a form of programming language that is usually interpreted rather than compiled. • Programs in scripting language are interpreted one command at a time. • Scripting languages are often written to facilitate enhanced features of Web sites. These features are processed on the server but the script in a specific page runs on the user’s browser. Learn More at www.BasicsOfProgramming.wordpress.com
