FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Modula-2 is a structured, procedural programming language developed between 1977 and 1985/8 by Niklaus Wirth at ETH Zurich. It was created as the language for the operating system and application software of the Lilith personal workstation. It was later used for programming outside the context of the Lilith.

Detailed explanation-2: -Wirth began his rise to prominence in computer science by creating two languages: Euler (based on his dissertation work), and the systems programming language PL360 (for the IBM System/360 series of computers).

Detailed explanation-3: -Niklaus Emil Wirth, (born Feb. 15, 1934, Winterthur, Switz.), Swiss computer scientist and winner of the 1984 A.M. Turing Award, the highest honour in computer science, for “developing a sequence of innovative computer languages, EULER, ALGOL-W, MODULA and PASCAL.”

Detailed explanation-4: -Modula-2 is still being used. The direct lineage of languages Modula-2 was a part of still exists. Even outside of that lineage, Modula-2 has spread its genes.

Detailed explanation-5: -However, C++ is one of the more-challenging programming languages to apply on a large scale. Danish computer scientist Bjarne Stroustrup began developing the new programming language shortly after joining the technical staff at Bell Laboratories in 1979.
