There are varies types of computer programming languages. Python is a interpreted programming language. Interpreted programming languages it incorporates modules exceptions and dynamic typing. Its a very high level programming language. Pythons writability and readability is why its ranked so high on most popular languages next to java and C. Python code is easily portable and has thousands of free open code programs. Why would a user choose python over C? C programming language works well with internal software and while python is a general all purpose language that can complete most tasks.

Taking a look at python and C. C was first used in 1972 and designed by Dennis Ritchie and Bell labs. The main purpose of C at the time was for US Army development. Time went on and C was used in small electronics and became more practical. C was also used on the Unix operating system. Python first appeared in 1991 and was designed by Guido van Rossum. Python was created to improve user readability and open a whole new frontier with object oriented programming. The aim of Python was help programmers write cleat logical code for small and large scale projects. Which language to choose was based on the programmer and what type of project was to be accomplished.

Programming languages are used in everything nowadays from your cars chip to your laptops software to you refrigerator or your TV. Every electronic with software was written code it was to complete. What good is an iPad without software it would just be a good door wedge.

Programming languages biggest difference is that they take great form of precision and completeness the computer needs to know exactly how and when and were to complete the code. Nothing is assumed in programming a simple mistake could cause your whole program to crash. A programming language provides a structured mechanism for defining pieces of data and the operations or transformations that may be carried out.

    Great introduction into programming languages, specifically python. It is crazy to think how so many things in our life use code from these languages and we don't even know it. Python and R are both widely used in biology/bioinformatics, now I can see why Python is used, clean, logical code and lots of free open programs to use.

Abinezer Abebe STEM  Week 3                                       Computer Based Programming Languages Research   Most video games are made from custom code based on the C programming language. Game programming requires substantial skill in software engineering. There are 7 phases a program goes through before the game is published. The first and important is prototyping. The programmer might write down some ideas and figure out the game plans and how the game would work. Is the game going to be multiplayer is the game going to be online ? The programmer would come up a concept. Next step would be the game design. Here the programmer might Collab with others to deign the characters the game scene. Programmers often follow closely the game design that they have set. As they code every line of the program they capabilities are discovered and exploited. During production the programmer may create a great deal of source code to create his game. They also might use free open source code so

   Abinezer Abebe STEM  Week 8                                                                  Computer Based Research One of the biggest growing fields in Computer Science is Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Artificial Intelligence is different from basic programs because you aren't the one solving the problem but the computer itself. Artificial Intelligence uses Machine learning software's to fed to the computer this way the computer is "learning". For example a computer can detect images and identify and name the object. For this to work programmers would fed the computer countless pictures of what a dog is considered. Based of those pics you can test the computers knowledge and ask it if a picture is a dog or not. Also there are 5th Generation computer languages these vary from 3rd and 4th gen. In 3rd Generation languages the user is working with a programming language that isn't low level 0 and 1 code it has easier usability and has more key wo
