2. Lisp (programming language) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_(programming_language)

   Lisp (historically LISP, an abbreviation of "list processing") is a family of programming languages with a long history and a distinctive, fully parenthesized prefix notation. [3] Originally specified in the late 1950s, it is the second-oldest high-level programming language still in common use, after Fortran .

3. Procedural programming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_programming

   Procedural programming. Procedural programming is a programming paradigm, classified as imperative programming, [1] that involves implementing the behavior of a computer program as procedures (a.k.a. functions, subroutines) that call each other. The resulting program is a series of steps that forms a hierarchy of calls to its constituent ...

4. List of educational programming languages - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_educational...

   The name LISP derives from "List Processing language". Linked lists are one of the languages' major data structures, and Lisp source code is made of lists. Thus, Lisp programs can manipulate source code as a data structure, giving rise to the macro systems that allow programmers to create new syntax or even new domain-specific languages ...

5. Computer programming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

   e. Computer programming or coding is the composition of sequences of instructions, called programs, that computers can follow to perform tasks. [1][2] It involves designing and implementing algorithms, step-by-step specifications of procedures, by writing code in one or more programming languages. Programmers typically use high-level ...

6. Java (programming language) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(programming_language)

   Java is a high-level, class-based, object-oriented programming language that is designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is a general-purpose programming language intended to let programmers write once, run anywhere (), [16] meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the need to recompile. [17]

7. Message passing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing

   Message passing is a technique for invoking behavior (i.e., running a program) on a computer. In contrast to the traditional technique of calling a program by name, message passing uses an object model to distinguish the general function from the specific implementations. The invoking program sends a message and relies on the object to select ...

8. Processing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processing

   Processing is a free graphics library and integrated development environment (IDE) built for the electronic arts, new media art, and visual design communities with the purpose of teaching non-programmers the fundamentals of computer programming in a visual context. Processing uses the Java language, with additional simplifications such as ...

9. Java (software platform) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(software_platform)

   The Java platform is a suite of programs that facilitate developing and running programs written in the Java programming language. A Java platform includes an execution engine (called a virtual machine), a compiler and a set of libraries; there may also be additional servers and alternative libraries that depend on the requirements.
