Programming Language

Computer programming languages allow us to communicate with a computer in a language the computer understands.

There are an many computer programming languages that programmers can use to communicate with a computer and the language that a computer can understand is called a binary.

The process of translating programming language into binary is known as compiling and each language, from C Language to Python, has its own features, although there are similarities between programming languages.

These languages allow computers to quickly and efficiently process large and complex bits of information in real time without errors.

There are many programming languages that are used today in the information technology industry to facilitate communication.

One of them is Python which is an advanced programming language that is interpreted, object-oriented and built on flexible and robust semantics. 

Next we have Java which is a all purpose, object oriented, high-level programming language that makes it suitable for web development and is present in everything from video games to mobile apps, as well as web based applications with Java server pages.

It allows applets to be downloaded when online and is used through a browser, which can then perform a function not normally available.

Ruby is an open source, object oriented scripting language that can be used independently or as part of the Ruby on Rails web framework that has many positive qualities including rapid development, you don’t need as much code, and there are a wide variety of choices available.

HTML is the standard markup language that is used to create web pages; it ensures proper formatting of text and images using tags so that the internet browsers can display them in the ways they were intended for the viewer.

JavaScript is a client side programming language not related to Java that runs inside a client browser and processes commands that are on a computer rather than a server and is found placed either into an HTML or ASP file.

C Language is a structure oriented, middle level programming language that is mostly used to develop low-level applications.

C++ is a multi purpose, object-oriented, middle-level programming language and is an extension of C language, which makes it possible to code C++ in a C style format and the coding can be done in either format, making C++ an example of a hybrid language.

C# is a multi level programming language that features strong typing, imperative, declarative, functional, generic, object-oriented and component-oriented disciplines.

Objective-C is a simple, general purpose and object oriented language that uses a system of message whereby an object in Objective-C is sent a message, it can choose to either ignore or forward to another object, rather than return a value.

 PHP is an open source scripting language that is designed for creating dynamic web pages that effectively work with databases and is also used as a general purpose programming language.

PHP tends to be a popular languages since it is easy to use for new programmers, but also offers advanced features for more experienced programmers.

If you want to be a developer, you need to be knowledgeable in a number of programming languages so you can be versatile and adapt and then continue to learn and master these languages throughout your career.

Coding Explained

Code can be defined as a set of instructions in a language that computers can understand; and it is what makes it possible for us to create different computer software, apps and websites that we use including the browser, the operating system, the apps present on your phone, social media sites etc. are all made with code.   Computer coding is a process that leads from an original forming of a computing problem to a computer program that works. Codes play an important role in our lives as code is what makes computers work and computers are integrated with many objects and electronic devices that we use daily like phones, watches, microwaves and cars. People who code are known by different names such as coders, programmers, developers, computer scientists, software engineers, etc. Computers are nothing but machines that run on binary code written in 1s and 0s which is very difficult for humans to work with. Computers like people can understand different la...

Culture conflict in globalization

Globalization is a phenomenon that has made its presence felt in our daily lives and has changed the way we live and has led to the interaction between diverse cultures through convergence of world views, products and ideas, whereby cultural conflict can make or break a business that is trying to establish itself in a foreign country. One of the strategies that make a difference when it comes to establishing a successful presence in a foreign land is effective communication. This includes not just language and does not include only English as although English is the global language of doing business, many countries prefer to function in their local language which can be a cause for concern but this problem is minimized as most countries have a sizeable population who are bilingual and are comfortable with using English despite the fact that it is not their mother tongue. Non-verbal communication also plays an important role and one needs to be aware of the cultural nuances and cu...

Smartwatches - How They Work

A  smartwatch  can be described as a mobile device with a touchscreen display that is designed to be worn on the wrist for daily use.
