[hemmerling] Programming Languages, Platforms and Runtimes
ADA

- Download of the free version of GNAT 3.11p for Windows, Linux.
- README.LAST - list of mirrors.
ALGOL 68
BASIC
- Xojo ( formerly REAL BASIC ), see section “Commercial Cross-Platform Development Systems”.
COBOL
Tools
- The free compiler “Fujitsu PowerCOBOL V3.0 L10” for Windows.
-
- “Fujitsu used to provide an early version (V3) of their COBOL compiler for free. It worked well but didn't have many features that were introduced in later versions so it didn't threaten sales for business use. That version, created in the early '90s, no longer works on today's computers and versions of Windows and is no longer supported. It has not made sense to offer more recent versions in this way”.
-
Resources
- Staff members of “Klaus Bodenbach Unternehmens- und IS-Beratungs GmbH” hold COBOL courses at Fachhochschule Hannover, University of Applied Sciences and Arts, regularly, in the 1990th and 2000th. I passed such a course in Summer 2005.
- Archive.org "kbu-gmbh.de" ( - 2006-12-05 ).
FORTRAN
Tools
- The OpenSource FORTRAN compiler G95 for Linux and Windows.
- WATCOM.
- Open Watcom - The OpenSource “Open Watcom Fortran” for DOS, Windows, OS/2, Linux.
-
- Silverfrost Limited "FTN95 Personal Edition" - “Silverfrost FTN95 can now be used free for personal use. It is strictly for personal use or evaluation purposes”.
- Silverfrost Limited "FTN77 Personal Edition" - “FTN95 is the successor to FTN77 but you can still download the FTN77 personal edition”.

Go / Golang
The Language
-
- The Go Programming Language "Effective Go" - The Go language manual.
- The free online IDE and online compiler for Go programming The Go Programming Language "A Tour of Go".
- Blog The Go Blog.
Experts
- Geoffrey Teale, XING "Geoffrey Teale", LinkedIn "Geoffrey Teale", Twitter "Geoffrey J. Teale, @tealeg" - Ubuntu team member & “Golang” expert.
Resources
- Experts told me, that “Go” is a high-level language like “Java”, while “Rust” is more a C-alike programming language for embedded systems.
Open Quantum Assembly Language ( OpenQASM )
- EN.Wikipedia "OpenQASM" - “An intermediate representation for quantum instructions”.
Processing
The Software Platform
- Processing, GitHub "processing", a Java application.
- Hello Processing! - Video tutorials.
-
Online Services
-
- Is this really about the “Processing” programming language?!
- Libraries:
- The free library p5js.
- The library “Processing.js” is just available for paying subscribers.
- “Algorithmic Design for the Creative Hive. Create, fork and explore interactive sketches in p5js?. Create your own class where students can learn and collaborate, together”.
- “OpenProcessing is independent and not directly related to 'processing.org'. 'Processing.org' is the foundation that is responsible from developing the processing language and libraries (p5js). OpenProcessing uses p5js as its core library in the code editor, and responsible from the social coding platform on the website”.
- “You may find coding reference on the reference tab - when you edit a sketch -, and with more info on p5.js "Reference".
Some other Implementations
- Processing "Python Mode for Processing" - “You write Processing code. In Python”.
- Processing "Python Mode for Processing - Examples" - “Processing.py Examples. Coming soon! In the meantime, consult the examples that are included in the Python Mode download for Processing (File > Examples...)”.
Resources
- The original IDE, running on Java, supports software development with Java on Desktop PC ( Windows, MacOS, Linux ) and Android, Javascript, CoffeeScript and Python.
- OpenGL issues with “Processing 2.2.1” and newer, mostly with Windows:
- The demo applications of the folder “Camera”, “Demos” - and maybe some others, but not all - crash by the Java error message “Framebuffer objects are not supported by this hardware (or driver) Read http://wiki.processing.org/w/OpenGL_Issues for help”
, on my- “Athlon XP2400” desktop computer with NVIDIA GeForce 6600 graphics card and webcam, with Win7.
- Notebook “Dell Vostro 1000”, with Win8.1.
- Notebook “ASUS Eee PC T101MT”, with Win8.1.
- The demo applications work well on my
- Notebook “Dell Vostro 1000”, with Ubuntu Linux 14 LTE
.
-
- “In Processing 2.0, a new version of the OpenGL library replaces the one found in 1.x releases”.
- “The new version of the OpenGL library requires drivers that support OpenGL 2.0. This allows us to keep OpenGL support for desktop and Android in sync with one another. Unfortunately this means that some older cards and drivers (particularly on Linux) will not work, and that Processing 2.0 on such machines will be limited to 2D graphics”.
Prolog
- The free SWI-Prolog for Win, Linux, MacOSX.
- OpenSHORE, SourceForge "OpenSHORE", SourceForge "OpenSHORE" - “Semantic Hypertext Object Repository”.
- “An XML based Semantic Document Repository (SDR) with a free definable meta model that builds up a semantic network from sections and relations in documents”.
- freshmeat "OpenSHORE" - “The repository uses PROLOG as its query language”.
Rust
- The Rust Programming Language - “A systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents almost all crashes*, and eliminates data races”.
- Experts told me, that “Rust” is a C-alike programming language for embedded systems, while “Go” is more a high-level language like “Java”.
SPARK
- Altran Praxis "SPARK" - “SPARK is a programming language and a set of software development products for high assurance software. The SPARK programming language is the only language specifically designed to support the development of safety or security critical software. In combination with the SPARK toolset, SPARK prevents, detects and eliminates defects early in the lifecycle as the source code is developed. It is, effectively, the result of applying the principles of Correctness by Construction to the design of a programming language and associated verification tools”.
Stack Languages
Bitcoin Script
- Bitcoin Wiki "Script", Bitcoin Wiki "Script" - “Bitcoin uses a scripting system for transactions. Similar to Forth, Script is simple, stack-based, and processed from left to right as a series of sequential instructions. Data is pushed onto the stack and opcodes are used to perform operations on the items on the stack”.
- EN.Wikipedia "Bitcoin", DE.Wikipedia "Bitcoin" - “Transactions are defined using a Forth-like scripting language”.
Factor
FORTH
- See FORTH.
Streaming Media Devices & its Programming Languages
Strict Programming Litanguage
