What programming Language
It is common to come across different coding languages, to learn different programming languages, but why do you choose that language for development?
One of our first questions when learning to code is often what is the best programming language, what programming language should I learn, what language will make me a badass just kidding but you get the point.
Now I have come to realize that all and every language has a reason they were created and a problem they are trying to solve. Take for example Node js and Java,
Node is a runtime environment for javascript outside the browser, which fills the need for handling a large number of I/O simultaneously without each request blocking the other and without using large memory space, you can read more about node js here.
Node js Use Cases
Streaming web apps, Real-Time Collaboration tool, Complex Single-Page Applications, Real-Time Chat Application.
Java was to solve the problem of platform dependency with the W.O.R.A, Write Once Run Anywhere, where you didn’t have to rewrite code to fit different platforms, one program can run on any machine supporting any platform. With other different problems which I didn’t state. Read more about java here
Java Use Cases
Desktop GUI Applications, Enterprise Applications, Web Applications, Scientific Applications, Big Data Technologies, Mobile Applications, Mobile Android Games, etc, Read more on the use cases below
In addition to these languages, many others are used for different purposes, so knowing when a language is best for a specific task is important.
Let me know the purposes and use cases for other languages and also more for the ones I mentioned above.
