Thus far in my computer science studies I haven't had a ton of practice with many of the computer programming languages that are in wide use today. I have used Java and begun to work with C++. I have realized that there are many similarities between the two languages in both syntax and overall style, but Java and C++ are only a small part of the spectrum of computer programming languages.
In software development it is fairly common that the software is developed using many different computer languages. Windows Vista, for example, was developed using C#, C++, .Net framework and several other languages. Although Vista is an operating system which is complex computer software, it is common practice to use different languages for a single software. This is done because certain languages are best suited for different parts of programming. Many times this will be done by different programmers that specialize in different languages. I would like to take a look into some of the different languages over the next few posts and focus on what languages are better suited for different types of programming. This allows for a better understanding of the programming process and the different tools utilized during it.
