The different programming language generations

-
A Programming language is a formal language which determines a lot of guidelines and the principles of their application. By the right use and blend of the directions we can make our projects.

A ton of programming languages have been created since the start of software engineering and the improvement has not wrapped up by any stretch of the imagination. The generations of programming languages are defines separately below:
  • First Generation Language (1GL): It is a collection of machine languages written in binary code. It has a distinct advantage over other languages as it allows the programs to run very fast and very efficiently, because the processing is directly done by the CPU. But, in case of rectifying an error, there can be a huge disadvantage.

  • Second Generation Language (2GL): It is the type of programming language where the code written can be intercepted by the programmer. But before running the program it is converted into machine language by a process called assembly. So these are assembly languages. For example: x86, MIPS, ARM, SPARC, etc.

  • Third Generation Language (3GL): These languages are more programmer-friendly than computer-dependent. These are high-level languages as they are much closer to human language than most programming languages. They allow the programmer to read, write and maintain the code they have written. Before processing they are to be turned into machine language by the help of a compiler or an interpreter. And then it can be run on any operating system as they are machine-independent. C, C++, C#, JAVA, BASIC, PASCAL are some of the main third generation languages.

  • Fourth Generation Language (4GL): These types of languages are suitable for handling bulk data at a singular moment rather than focusing on small bits and bytes.Languages claiming to be 4GL may incorporate help for database management, report generation, scientific streamlining, GUI improvement, or web advancement. 4GL-like features have been developed as peripherals for most popular 3GLs. This has blurred the distinction of 4GL and 3GL. Some of them are SAS, SPSS, STATA, PowerBuilder, etc.

  • Fifth Generation Language (5GL): It is any programming language dependent on critical thinking utilizing imperatives given to the program, as opposed to utilizing a calculation composed by a programmer. These languages have the highest level of automation and knowledge-base as they tend to solve any given problem within a program without the help of the programmer. They are now mainly used in artificial intelligence research. OPS5, Mercury, ICAD, KL-ONE, stc. are some of the more common examples.

Artificial Intelligence and its capabilities

Man-made consciousness (AI) is the reenactment of human knowledge forms by machines, particularly PC frameworks. These procedures incorporate learning (the procurement of data and tenets for utilizing the data), thinking (utilizing standards to achieve estimated or clear ends) and self-revision. Although no distinct evidence of AI cant be found by the general population, there are wide spread use of AI in a lot of aspects of communication system. Current Uses of AI: Although artificial intelligence evokes thoughts of science fiction, artificial intelligence already has many uses today, for example: Email filtering : Email services use artificial intelligence to filter incoming emails. Users can train their spam filters by marking emails as “spam”. Personalization : Online services use artificial intelligence to personalize your experience. Services, like Amazon or Netflix, “learn” from your previous purchases and the purchases of other users in order to recommend releva

Hi, I am a newly admitted student in University of Technology Malaysia coming from the culture-rich country of Bangladesh. My name is  Faiyaz Ifaz, studying in the computing faculty. My interests are mainly food related in direct or indirect ways. So that is what i will be posting about mostly. These are some that I have already cooked up. I hope I will continue to try to cook many other dishes and try them out. I hope the pictures I post will make my readers hungry. That is my Goal. 🍔🍕🍤🍱✌
