I know just a little bit about programming  :redface:
After the first 3 or 4 programming languags become irrelevant. It is just logic combined with English  :lol:

to be honest, I find Java to be the easiest, and c# to be the hardest.

Pascal is one of the 'old' computer languages.

In the old days people programmed for character based systems (think of Linux or old MS-DOS.
For these the most popular programming languages were Basic, Pascal and Cobol.
Pascal was one of the first using a graphic interface (by the Borland company) to program.
For database programming there was Dbase.
In this time programming looked a lot like scripting.

Once Windows became popular the programming languages were re-developed to become object-orented.
C# and C++ were made based on Cobol, and Basic more or less grew in to this.
In Visual Studio the differences between Visual Bacis and Visual C++ are becomming less and less.

Borland tried to from Pascal in to Delphi, but it was too late to keep their market share.

With the C programming being the most platform independent it has become the most popular programming, in different varieties.
