🖥️ Ever wondered why programming languages exist? Computers only understand 0s & 1s — but humans needed something more readable. 🧵Here’s the fascinating journey 👇 #CodeHistory #LearnToCode
📜 1843: Ada Lovelace wrote the first algorithm for Babbage’s Analytical Engine → the world’s first programmer. She proved machines could follow symbolic instructions ✨
⚡ 1940s: Early computers (ENIAC, Colossus) were programmed in raw machine code — endless 0s and 1s. Incredibly hard to debug!
🔠 1950s: Assembly languages replaced binary with mnemonics (e.g., MOV AL, 61h) and assemblers translated it back into machine code. Easier, but still low-level.
🚀 1957+: High-level languages arrived: ➝ Fortran (scientific computing) ➝ LISP (AI research) ➝ COBOL (business apps, Grace Hopper) Now code started to look more human-readable.
🛠 1970s–80s: C, Pascal, C++ shaped modern coding. C became the “mother” of many languages, and C++ added object-oriented programming.
🌐 1990s–Now: Languages for productivity & the web! ➝ Java (cross-platform) ➝ Python (easy, huge in AI & data) ➝ JavaScript (the web’s backbone) ➝ + C#, PHP, Go, Rust, Swift, Kotlin…
⚡ Flow of coding: Source Code → Compiler/Interpreter → Machine Code (binary) → CPU executes instructions. Your print("Hello, World!") eventually becomes 0s & 1s.
✅ Summary: - Computers speak binary. - Humans created languages → binary translation. - From Lovelace’s algorithm to Python & AI today, coding made machines useful for us! 💡 #ProgrammingLanguages #TechHistory #STEM
