Why are there things like c++ and python when computers have to be programmed. Why does there need to be so many languages when one could solve it?
In: 222
Each language has its own advantages and disadvantages. I’m not familiar enough to name them, but I have a passing familiarity with why. Basically some computer programmer looked at a language and said, “it would be so much easier if I could do all this with less code.” So they designed a programming language that did that. Unfortunately in order to do one thing better it doesn’t do other tasks as easily. So the other languages still stay relevant while the people doing the task the writer envisioned use the new language.
