Below are various programming and computer science related |
|
books. I enjoy using "older" languages and have a particular |
|
fondness for BASIC, FORTRAN, and COBOL. |

direct control over a computer's hardware using |
|
processor-specific instructions. |

[Ada] |
|
Ada is a high-level programming language developed in the |
|
late 1970s by the U.S. Department of Defense to improve |
|
software reliability and maintainability, particularly for |
|
embedded and real-time systems. |

|
[BASIC] |
|
|
|
BASIC (Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) is a |
|
high-level programming language designed in the 1960s to be |
|
simple and accessible for beginners. It was created by John |
|
G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College to help |
|
students learn programming. BASIC became widely popular in |
|
the 1970s and 1980s, especially on early personal computers |
|
like the Apple II and Commodore 64. While its original |
|
versions used simple line-numbered syntax, modern variations |
|
like Visual Basic have evolved into more powerful, structured |
|
programming languages. |
