What is a Programming Language?

A programming language is used to write computer programs such as
•Applications
•Utilities
•Servers
•Systems Programs
A program is written as a series of human understandable computer instructions that can be read by a compiler and linker, and translated into machine code so that a computer can understand and run it.

Users who are new to computer programming may find the above list confusing and may not be sure where to start. Where to start really depends on the computer programming you wish to do. Below is a listing of some of the different fields of programming as well as what language you should consider for each of these fields.

Note: There are several programming languages listed above that may not be listed in a category below that they are capable of doing. Instead of listing every language under every category below, we have just listed some of the more popular choices for each category.

Application and Program development
Artificial Intelligence development
Database development
Game development
Computer drivers or other hardware interface development
Internet and web page development
Script development

Applications and Program development

Application and program development involves programs you work on a daily bases. For example, the Internet browser you are using to view this web page is considered a program. If you are interested in writing your own programs you should consider the below languages.

Are you smart?
Can you code?
How much of your day do you spend coding?
How many meetings do you have every week?
What is the ratio of testers to developers to product managers? What is the interaction like? How does project planning happen on the team?
What are the data types?
Do you need to know details of C++, Java, etc?
