Introduction to

Programming Languages

Programming languages are the foundation of software development. They enable


programmers to communicate instructions to a computer. Each language has its own
syntax, rules, and capabilities, making them suitable for different types of tasks and
projects.
Overview of C Programming Language

Low-Level Access Procedural Programming Wide Application Range


C is known for its direct access to C follows a procedural C language is widely used in
memory and low-level programming paradigm, focusing developing system software, device
manipulation, making it suitable for on functions and step-by-step drivers, and firmware for various
system programming and embedded execution of instructions. applications.

Key Features and Characteristics of C
Speed Portability Flexibility
C is known for its fast Programs written in C can be C provides a high level of
execution, making it suitable easily ported across different control over system resources
for performance-critical platforms and architectures. and memory management.
applications.
Overview of C++ Programming Language
1 Object-Oriented Paradigm
C++ extends the features of C with object-oriented programming capabilities, allowing the creation of
real-world entities as objects.

2 Generic Programming
C++ supports generic programming through templates, enabling the implementation of data structures
and algorithms that are independent of data types.

3 Standard Template Library (STL)


C++ includes a powerful library of algorithms, containers, and iterators, providing a rich set of
functions for various operations.
Key Features and Characteristics of C++

1 Rich Standard Library 2 Performance


C++ offers a comprehensive set of libraries for C++ allows low-level memory manipulation and
data structures, algorithms, and I/O operations. offers high performance suitable for system
software and game development.

3 Reusability 4 Scalability
C++ supports the creation of reusable and C++ provides facilities for managing large and
modular code through classes and objects. complex software projects, ensuring scalability
and maintainability.
Overview of Java Programming Language

Platform Independence Automatic Memory Rich Standard Library


Management

and pointer errors.
Key Features and Characteristics of Java

Secure
Java provides a secure runtime environment, with features such as bytecode verification
and automatic memory management.

Multi-threading
Java supports concurrent programming, allowing multiple threads to run simultaneously
for efficient performance.

Exception Handling
Java includes robust exception handling mechanisms to manage and recover from
unexpected errors during program execution.
