How has computer programming changed over the years?
Dennis Ritchie and Brian Kernighan developed the C programming language, initially for DEC PDP-11 in 1970. Later with lead of Bjarne Stroustrup the programming language C++ appeared in 1985 as an Object oriented language vertically compatible with C. Sun Microsystems released Java in 1995 which became very popular as an introductory programming language taught in universities. Microsoft presented the C# programming language in 2001 which is very similar to C++ and Java. There are many, many other languages (cf. List of programming languages).
