  2. Assembly language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_language

    In computer programming, assembly language (alternatively assembler language[1] or symbolic machine code), [2][3][4] often referred to simply as assembly and commonly abbreviated as ASM or asm, is any low-level programming language with a very strong correspondence between the instructions in the language and the architecture's machine code ...

  3. Software construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_construction

    Software construction is a software engineering discipline. It is the detailed creation of working meaningful software through a combination of coding, verification, unit testing, integration testing, and debugging. It is linked to all the other software engineering disciplines, most strongly to software design and software testing.

  4. Structured programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structured_programming

    Structured programming. Structured programming is a programming paradigm aimed at improving the clarity, quality, and development time of a computer program by making extensive use of the structured control flow constructs of selection (if/then/else) and repetition (while and for), block structures, and subroutines.

  5. Integer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_programming

    Integer programming. An integer programming problem is a mathematical optimization or feasibility program in which some or all of the variables are restricted to be integers. In many settings the term refers to integer linear programming (ILP), in which the objective function and the constraints (other than the integer constraints) are linear.

  6. Computer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

    e. Computer programming or coding is the composition of sequences of instructions, called programs, that computers can follow to perform tasks. [1][2] It involves designing and implementing algorithms, step-by-step specifications of procedures, by writing code in one or more programming languages. Programmers typically use high-level ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC

    BASIC Programming at Wikibooks. BASIC (Beginners' All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) [1] is a family of general-purpose, high-level programming languages designed for ease of use. The original version was created by John G. Kemeny and Thomas E. Kurtz at Dartmouth College in 1963. They wanted to enable students in non-scientific fields to ...

  8. Comparison of programming languages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    Comparison ofprogramming languages. Programming languages are used for controlling the behavior of a machine (often a computer). Like natural languages, programming languages follow rules for syntax and semantics. There are thousands of programming languages [1] and new ones are created every year. Few languages ever become sufficiently popular ...

  9. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    Function (computer programming) In computer programming, a function (also procedure, method, subroutine, routine, or subprogram) is a callable unit[1] of software logic that has a well-defined interface and behavior and can be invoked multiple times. Callable units provide a powerful programming tool. [2] The primary purpose is to allow for the ...
