Computer Programs Language

Learning to write a computer program is not very difficult. What the professionals don't tell you is that one of the goals of a computer program is to be easy to read, easy to maintain, fix, update, and enhance. The easier a computer programming language is to use, the more people will be able to use it, the more successful that language will become. At the lowest level, all computers execute programs in "Bits" or teeny, tiny switches that are either on or off. These switches are like microscopic light switches – when the switch is on, power can get past. When the switch is off, power cannot get past. Believe it or not, there are still some computer languages used in the industrial world that look like electrical schematics with on/off switches. But if normal people like you and I had to write programs in that manner, no one would ever want to become a programmer! You’d be better off becoming a Mathematician or an Actuary! (If you are already an Actuary, you may have an edge in computer programming!) Popular programming languages like Visual Basic, C, and Java are all readily available and are relatively easy to read and use once you've learned the basic fundamentals of computer programming.
