-- Here is some programming language that I know--
|
|
Assembly language (aka, asm);
Assembly language is the most rapid in term of speed of execution out there, the drawback is the interface
, it's really not easy to write in the language. The language that it create is the nearest of the machine
code, that why it's not the most user friendly to work with.
[example 1- a bit of code ripped from a program of mine.]
push ebp
mov ebp, esp
push FFFFFFFF
push 0040BF69
mov eax, dword ptr fs:[00000000]
push eax
mov dword ptr fs:[00000000], esp
push ecx
mov dword ptr [ebp-10], ecx
mov [ebp-04], 00000000
mov eax, dword ptr [ebp-10]
cmp dword ptr [eax+48], 00000000
je 00401535
mov ecx, dword ptr [ebp-10]
cmp dword ptr [ecx+4C], 00000000
je 004014F4
mov edx, dword ptr [ebp-10]
mov eax, dword ptr [edx+4C]
mov ecx, dword ptr [ebp-10]
mov edx, dword ptr [ecx+4C]
mov ecx, dword ptr [edx]
push eax
call [ecx+08]
mov edx, dword ptr [ebp-10]
mov [edx+4C], 00000000
[example 2- for c/c++ user, u can see the WinMain here( Translate and Post messages loop ) n.b result taken from win32dasm output.]
N.B.: - the number like :004016C in the sample only show the location of the code in the file, like a line number.
- and the number after :004016C, 8B55FC, mean that "mov edx, dword ptr [ebp-04]" look like thst in binary format.

In fact, you can write your program in any advanced language editor, in the output, if it's a .exe or a .com, the result will always look like that.

BASIC (QBasic, GWBasic, Visual Basic, Access, etc...)
Basic is a cool language maked by Microsoft I think. I first learned programming skill with that language (QBasic), for programming in school, that's the best to
use I think, but if you plan on making a big applications and / or games, forget it with Basic, the compiler seem to be slow as hell, the exe is big, and you got a *ton* of dependancy
with your program after. But I must tell that language is fun to use :]

C / C++
C is surelly, in my opinion, one of the best to use language out there, many tutorial written in C, and many book cover it, but the learning curve is a downfall of C.
If you intend to program under Win32 and use OpenGL, Mdac, DirectX, etc.. C is for you because all include library are almost all written in C before behing translated into Delphi, Visual Basic, etc..
[example 1- a bit of code ripped from a Console program.]
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <graphics.h>
int main()
{
int gdriver = MCGA, gmode = 0, errorcode;
initgraph(&gdriver, &gmode, "");
errorcode = graphresult();
if (errorcode != grOk) /* an error occurred */
{
printf("Graphics error: %s\n", grapherrormsg(errorcode));
printf("Press any key to halt:");
getch();
exit(1); /* return with error code */
}
line(0, 0, getmaxx(), getmaxy());
getch();
closegraph();
return 0;
}

Cobol
If someone like database programming, I *guess* cobol can be fun to learn, but except that, the only place that I still imagine Cobol is in my nightmare :P Cobol is only for databases, but
with skill you can make a tic-tac-toe game ;p

Delphi(Win32) / Pascal(Dos)
Delphi is a cool language to start with, the learning step is better than in C / C++, I dont have much to say about that language, except that you can do all with it that you can do in C, so it's not a "closed" language.
[example 1- here is a small "part" of a proggy, so you can see how Pascal's code look like]
...
...
...
if (frmNbrJoueurs.RGnbJoueurs.itemindex = 1) and (frmTypePartie.RGTypePartie.ItemIndex = 1) then
begin
ObjetJoueur2.TrouverGagnant;
if MessageDlg('Voulez-vous continuer à jouer ? ',mtConfirmation, [mbYes, mbNo], 0) = mrYes then
DebuterPartie
else
begin
FrmCaracJoueurs.Visible := false;
frmNbrJoueurs.Show;
objettournoi.nbCartes := 1;
objetlibre.nbCartes := 1;
objetJoueur2.nbrPairesTrouves1 := 0;
objetJoueur2.nbrPairesTrouves2 := 0;
end;
end
else
if (frmNbrJoueurs.RGnbJoueurs.itemindex = 0) and (frmTypePartie.RGTypePartie.ItemIndex = 1) then
begin
...

Html
Html is easy, and fun to use, and while Im writting these line Im in a html editor :P
[example 1- Because Im too lazy to write some html codes, simply click on "view source" in your browser =p]

PHP
PHP is damn cool is you have some web page to enhance. :] , I wish to be able to use php on angelfire, but we cant :/. Php can make mysql/postgre's sql database
connection, and build some site the way you like them, well, the way the webdevelopper like it, and if you dont use
database, php still can replace cgi with the power of it script :]
[example 1- here is a small php script, it simply make the bruiser show a small table with the contant *site not finished* ;p, and you can see that php is at 99.99% like C / C++]
<?
/*
|- ----------------------------------------------------------
|- PHP 4.0 test
|- Created: (09/11/2000)
|- ----------------------------------------------------------
*/
echo "<td valign=\"top\" width=\"100\">";
echo "<table align=\"left\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" width=\"120\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" border=\"0\">";
echo "<tr bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">";
echo "<td><center>Sorry, the site is not finish at 100%</center></td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</td>";
echo "</table>";
?>
