Coding languages

We have many options to choose from when we are choosing a coding language. After reading this you will have the knowledge to help you choose the right one for you. We will compare some of the worlds most used coding language.

HTML and CSS

HTML which stands for Hyper Text Markup Language is what web pages are written in. CSS which stands for Cascading Style Sheets is a language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language like HTML. This is key for new coders as it helps with the basics and should be everyone first step when learning to code. If you research HTML, you will see that that is not the only one. You have HTML to HTML5 and XHTML that is because it has been around for a while and better versions were created.

JavaScript

I would say once you master the HTML and CSS techniques the next step is JavaScript. JavaScript makes websites interactive it is the most popular language for developers and most common when used for front end development. It mostly preferred because it is compatible with all the major browsers. It is very well liked for beginners because it a lot like the english language.

Python

Python is another highly preferred coding language as it is a lot like the English language. There is a 42% of people that are switching to python from other coding options. That is second only to JavaScript which is number one. Also, as you advance in your coding journey you will run into back end development like Django that is an open source framework that is written in Python.

C/CPP

Now we are going to talk about C which was introduced in the late 1970’s and considered the parent language. It inspired languages like Syntax, Constructs and even java. C is the most popular choice for high end building of applications. Linux OS is based from C coding. Then you have C++ which is more powerful it is typed checked before executed. It is being used in virtual reality, gaming, and computer graphics.
