Basic Concepts of Programming
Summary:
Computer programming is a process of designing and developing computer programs to achieve specific computing outcomes. It involves tasks such as analysis, coding, algorithm generation, and accuracy checking. Programming aims to find a sequence of instructions that solve a particular problem on a computer. Choosing the right programming language is crucial, as many options are available.
Programming languages, like human languages, have their own grammar rules and syntax. Some common basic elements in programming languages include the programming environment, data types, variables, keywords, logical and arithmetic operators, loops, numbers, characters, arrays, functions, and input/output operators.
Different programming languages have various applications. For example, Python is used in web development, scientific and numeric applications, and AI and machine learning. Java is commonly used for Android app development, web apps, and big data. R is used in data science projects and statistical computing. JavaScript is used in web/mobile, game, and desktop app development. Swift is designed for creating iOS apps. C++ is used in game development, advanced computations, and graphics compilers. C# is widely used in enterprise cross-applications development and web applications. PHP is used in web development, content management systems, and e-commerce applications. SQL is used in any database. Go is used for console utilities, GUI applications, and web applications.

Basic Concepts of Programming
PROGRAMMING:
INTRODUCTION
Computer programming is a step-by-step process of designing and developing various computer programs for a specific computing outcome. The process comprises several tasks like analysis, coding, algorithm generation, checking the accuracy, resource consumption of algorithms, etc. The purpose of computer programming is to find a sequence of instructions that solve a specific problem on a computer. Computer programming is very easy if it is appropriately managed. There are many computer programming languages available, so finalizing the right
programming language is not an easy task.
BASIC OF PROGRAMMING:
English is the most popular and well-known Human language. The English language has its own set of grammar rules, which has to be followed to write in the English language correctly. Human languages are made of several elements like nouns, adjectives, adverbs, propositions and conjunctions, etc.
