PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

Catalog description

This course covers the concept of computer language design, applications and those elements that allow us to differentiate a computer language from another. The major elements are completely evaluated; some criteria are established in the justification for better language efficiency and in the decision to select which language is better for a given problem. Differences are established based on languages categorization on those that are compiled and those that are interpreted. The syntaxes and semantic form of new computer languages like Prolog, JavaScript, LISP, Forth, Ruby and others are specially analyzed.
