These languages are designed to be human-readable and abstracted from the machine-level code. Examples include Python, Ruby, and Java.
Low-Level Programming Languages
Low-level languages are closer to the machine code and are used for system-level programming and hardware interaction. Examples include Assembly language and C.
Web Development Languages
These languages are used for building websites and web applications. Front-end languages include HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, while back-end languages include PHP, Python, Ruby, and Node.js.
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Languages
OOP languages focus on organizing code into objects and classes, promoting modularity and code reusability. Examples include Java, C++, and C#.
Functional Programming Languages
Functional programming languages treat computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and avoid changing-state and mutable data. Examples include Haskell, Lisp, and Erlang.
Scripting Languages
These languages are used for writing scripts or small programs to automate tasks. Examples include Python, Ruby, and JavaScript.
Data Science and Statistical Languages
Languages tailored for data analysis, manipulation, and visualization. Examples include R and Python (with libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib).
Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs)
DSLs are designed for specific tasks or industries, such as SQL for database queries, LaTeX for typesetting documents, and MATLAB for scientific computing.
