Home›Programming Languages›First Released›By Decade›1960sBrowse By1960sThis dimension groups programming languages by the year they were first released. Wikipedia notes that "early programming languages were closely tied to the hardware," while "modern languages often hide hardware details via abstraction," a shift that unfolded language by language over many release years. Browsing by first released lets a visitor compare languages that launched in the same period.1960sSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)1960sFilter Results25 entriesParadigmAllALGOL-Derived Languages (4)APL and Its Descendants (1)BASIC Dialects (1)Business and Data Processing Languages (2)C Lineage Languages (3)Discrete-Event and Physical System Modeling Languages (1)Early High-Level Languages and Coding Systems (1)Early Research Functional Languages (2)List and String Processing Languages (2)Structured Programming Languages (2)Very High-Level Languages (1)LineageAllABC (programming language) (1)AWK (1)B (programming language) (1)BASIC (1)BBC BASIC (1)C++ (2)COMAL (1)CORAL 66 (1)CPL (programming language) (1)Eiffel (1)GW-BASIC (1)Icon (programming language) (1)Lua (1)MUMPS (1)Nial (1)Perl (1)PL/M (1)Processing (1)PureBasic (1)Rebol (1)Scratch (programming language) (1)Smalltalk (2)Tiny BASIC (1)Wolfram Language (1)ACM AreaAllOperating Systems (1)Programming Language Theory (21)Software Engineering (2)Invented ByAllAdriaan van Wijngaarden (1)Christopher Strachey (2)Cliff Shaw (1)Cornelis H.
