Best software programming languages

For almost everything (but not completely everything), the world needs computers. Whether PC games are being made, games for PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Atari, software for PCs, Mobile phones, BIOS software, and mobile apps (plus web apps), development of all are these require computers and computer programmers.

That�s right; the world needs computer programmers. Each country in the world is jostling for as many computer programmers as there are and as much as they can attract. A lot of firms are offering flexible working hours, lucrative pay packages, plenty of opportunities, and the chance to make it big.

However, there are firms who, despite paying big amounts of money; have been using programmers as cattle ploughing a field without proper breaks. This has led to the creation of a crunch culture which is hurting business, companies, and consumer confidence.

But, in what way can any individual start programming? Which programming language should they choose in terms of developing custom software?

Software development professionals explain that associates, bachelors, or master�s degree holders in computer science, computer engineering, and software engineering easily develop an understanding of software development. With experience, they are able to determine the best language for custom software programming and development.

Which programming languages are best when it comes to the development of custom software?

Experts from a consortium of Bespoke software developers Dallas have revealed some of the best programming languages best suited for custom software development:

C#

C# is not pronounced C Hash but rather C Sharp. The language is a revamp of the main language C done in the year 2000. Considered the grandfather of all programming languages, Microsoft developed C# out of C language, a sturdy yet rigid computer language that has been in existence since 1972.

The advantage C# has is that it offers flexible synergy and automation with the .NET (Dot net) Framework of Microsoft. The language is optimized to work on Windows, Linux, and Mac thus allowing for productive custom software development across multiple platforms.

C++

The language was created in 1985 and was first imagined as both a spinoff and a slight upgrade of C. The name itself is an inside joke as �++� after a variable in C language means �increase it by 1�. The main advantage of C++ is support for different programming styles. A programmer can tweak and alter as many functions as needed to synergize C++�s code with other programming languages.

Java

Developed by Sun Microsystems in 1995, Java was conceptualized and imagined as a universal and portable programming language. Due to its nature, Java can be used to program smart cards as well as bank workstations. In fact, it is one of the most widely taught programming languages to students of software and computer sciences.

Platform independence and scalability are the advantages Java brings in with itself. In fact, it can be used for writing code for Android apps and the development of corporate software being run on wider and broader networks.

JavaScript

For the addition of functionality to websites, JavaScript by far is the most popular programming language deployed through HTML. Brendan Eich developed it in 1995 who was also among the geniuses in the creation of Mozilla Firefox.

The advantages of JavaScript are �in time� execution and its compatibility with almost all browsers. Here the code is executed by the browser as the user clicks on various areas of the website. All the dynamically changing buttons and fields present on websites are all built and executed due to JavaScript and are denoted by the .js file extension.

Python

Python is a segmental programming language that was created in 1990. Its original objective was to make tedious tasks fun. This language excels quite well at data scrapings, like downloading tons of Wikipedia articles containing a keyword or hundreds of images of a certain size scattered across a website.

The main advantages of Python are that it is optimized for human readability and easy to expand with extensions. Indeed, Python comes with some core functionality and offers a whole slew of extensions each programmer can mix and match. It is even possible to combine the strengths of numerous computer languages using some of the extensions.

HTML

First developed in 1993, HTML since then became a core standard of the modern internet. It uses a simple system of tags, like
