Predecessor

This dimension names the earlier language that a specific programming language was directly influenced by or replaced. Wikipedia notes that "modern languages often hide hardware details via abstraction in an effort to enable better software with less effort" than the languages that came before them. Browsing this way traces a language back to the predecessor it grew out of.
