The ALGOL Programming Language-then and now

The ALGOL (Algorithmic Programming Language) developed in the mid 1950’ s with the aims of: Creating a a language for scientific computation.  A language that was machine independent.  A universally accepted Programming Language.  Being the first language that Addressed the issue of software portability. All these goalswere acheved by an international Committe  in the late 1950s’ in a report entitled Algol58 followed by other reports etitled Algol60 and Algol68 respectively .Like many other languages it had a few problems here and there:  Although machine independence enabled developers to be more creative it made implementing more difficult. Despite the fact that the commercial populatrity of the Algol Family was not as great as other languages in its time such as Cobal and Fortran, but  you could say that its algorithmic structure was, which made it the most important language of its time. Languages which were later developed  aft...

The Fortran Programming Language

Written  September 5, 2013 One of the oldest programming languages, the Fortran programming language known mainly for its strength in numeric and scientific computation, was developed in the 1950′s and first published in 1957 by IBM in San Jose California as the first known high level programming language. Fortran came about at a time where programmers only had the opportunity to create programs using assembly and machine code which came with several downfalls such as it was: long and tedius to write quite bug prone very hard to debug code that was written was architecture dependent thus not portable now with the rise of Fortran, programers were able to write code at a much faster rate giving the programmer a lot more time to focus on solving problems than on the code being written. It was a true innovation in its day, being credited with the creation of the branch of computer science known today as the compiler theory. Over the years Fortran has seen sig...

How People Think

Recently i was on techjamaica in their forums where im a regular and one of its members posted a video of persons being being tricked into thinking that what they were testing out was the new iPad 3 which really were iPad2s, check it out  here . What fellow posters in the the thread and i kept talking about is how Apple is able to reproduce the same iDevices with not much major changes to the hardware or software and continue to reap a lot from it, but as usual there are always going to be devoted apple fans that hate  when you talk the truth. I might sound as if i hate Apple but i dont,  in fact i love using there products.Then what is the reason for this post ?..it is merely just to give users of these products a heads up when upgrading to the "latest". Reasons to get an iPad 3: You never had a device made by Apple. You care about performance and for you the iPad 1 or 2 just wasn't cutting it. You care about hardware and you love the fact that it is built...
