Programming: Survival Guide

Introduction

Good afternoon, everyone. Well, I'm here to give you some basic information on some common languages and tell you what they are mostly used for. Most of this information is off of Wikipedia and other online resources found using google. I'm just giving you what I can. Also before ANYONE accuses me of leaching, I am telling you now, that I am not taking credit for ANY of these guides, nor were they taken from ANYONE from this forum.

Languages

Java

Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (which has since merged into Oracle Corporation) and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems' Java platform. The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++ but has a simpler object model and fewer low-level facilities. Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode (class file) that can run on any Java Virtual Machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture. Java is a general-purpose, concurrent, class-based, object-oriented language that is specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers "write once, run anywhere", meaning that code that runs on one platform does not need to be recompiled to run on another. Java is currently one of the most popular programming languages in use, particularly for client-server web applications, with a reported 10 million users.

Hello World!

Code:
class HelloWorldApp {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!"); // Display the string.
    }
}

C++

C++ (pronounced "cee plus plus") is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. It is regarded as an intermediate-level language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features. It was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup starting in 1979 at Bell Labs as an enhancement to the C language. Originally named C with Classes, the language was renamed C++ in 1983. C++ is one of the most popular programming languages with application domains including systems software, application software, device drivers, embedded software, high-performance server and client applications, and entertainment software such as video games.

Hello World!

Code:
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
   std::cout << "Hello, world!\n";
}

VB.NET

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET), is an object-oriented computer programming language that can be viewed as an evolution of the classic Visual Basic (VB), which is implemented on the .NET Framework. Microsoft currently supplies two major implementations of Visual Basic: Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, which is commercial software and Visual Basic Express Edition 2010, which is free of charge.

Hello World!

Code:
Public Class Form1
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
Button1.Click
  MessageBox.Show("Hello, World")
    End Sub
End Class

PHP

PHP is a general-purpose server-side scripting language originally designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages. It is among one of the first developed server-side scripting languages to be embedded into an HTML source document, rather than calling an external file to process data. Ultimately, the code is interpreted by a Web server with a PHP processor module which generates the resulting Web page. It also has evolved to include a command-line interface capability and can be used in standalone graphical applications.PHP can be deployed on most Web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost every operating system and platform free of charge. A competitor to Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) server-side script engine and similar languages, PHP is installed on more than 20 million Web sites and 1 million Web servers.

Hello World!

Code:
<?php echo "Hello World"; ?>

Python

Python is a general-purpose, high-level programming language whose design philosophy emphasizes code readability. Python claims to combine "remarkable power with very clear syntax", and its standard library is large and comprehensive.

Python supports multiple programming paradigms, primarily but not limited to object-oriented, imperative and, to a lesser extent, functional programming styles. It features a fully dynamic type system and automatic memory management, similar to that of Scheme, Ruby, Perl, and Tcl. Like other dynamic languages, Python is often used as a scripting language, but is also used in a wide range of non-scripting contexts. Using third-party tools, Python code can be packaged into standalone executable programs. Python interpreters are available for many operating systems.

Hello World!

Code:
print("Hello, World!")

Wow, nice Tutorial. I like it. A sticky worth? maybe in future if this section becomes mo active. Biggrin

Nice little article you put together. Should help people get a better understanding of each language.

Would be sticky worth if it was put into his own words, but majority of it is copied and pasted. Still a great read though and nice that you put everything together.

Lol, maybe the codes, but he has written everything by himself?

No he hasn't, like you said maybe just the codes/resources, but that doesn't take hard work.

Its not written by you. It was copied and pasted, and well organized by you. Please don't take credit for something you didn't write.

No offense, i feel really stupid right now because of staff member DE LA SOUL, he don't know what he is talking about.
