computer programming basics

We assume you are well aware of English Language, which is a well-known Human Interface Language. English has a predefined grammar, which needs to be followed to write English statements in a correct way. Likewise, most of the Human Interface Languages (Hindi, English, Spanish, French, etc.) are made of several elements like verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs, propositions, and conjunctions, etc.
Similar to Human Interface Languages, Computer Programming Languages are also made of several elements. We will take you through the basics of those elements and make you comfortable to use them in various programming languages. These basic elements include −
  • Programming Environment
  • Basic Syntax
  • Data Types
  • Variables
  • Keywords
  • Basic Operators
  • Decision Making
  • Loops
  • Numbers
  • Characters
  • Arrays
  • Strings
  • Functions
  • File I/O
We will explain all these elements in subsequent chapters with examples using different programming languages. First, we will try to understand the meaning of all these terms in general and then, we will see how these terms can be used in different programming languages.
This tutorial has been designed to give you an idea about the following most popular programming languages −
  • C Programming
  • Java Programming
  • Python Programming
A major part of the tutorial has been explained by taking C as programming language and then we have shown how similar concepts work in Java and Python. So after completion of this tutorial, you will be quite familiar with these popular programming languages.

Education of India Part 2

History [ edit ] Main article:  History of education in South Asia The remnants of the library of  Nalanda , built in the 5th century BCE by  Gupta kings . It was rebuilt twice after invasion, first after an invasion from the  Huns  in the 5th century BCE and then after an invasion from the  Gaudas  in the 7th century CE but abandoned after the third invasion by  Turkic invaders  in the 12th century. Takshasila  (in modern-day Pakistan) was the earliest recorded centre of higher learning in India from possibly 8th century BCE, and it is debatable whether it could be regarded a university or not in modern sense, since teachers living there may not have had official membership of particular colleges, and there did not seem to have existed purpose-built lecture halls and residential quarters in Taxila, in contrast to the later Nalanda university in eastern India.  Nalanda  was the oldest university-system of education in the world in the modern sense of university.
