Summary of the history of Programming of computers

In order to facilitate the work of the programmer arises the need for the computer to understand a language different from its own, of ones and zeros, very complex for the human being. It is necessary to reduce the distance of languages between the humans and the computer, for this the programming languages are created. To get closer to each other. With such languages it is not necessary to write "strings" of ones and zeros; There is an expressive medium with a higher level of abstraction that enables the machine to be told what it is that has to be "done" in a way that is closer to the human form.

In this way, the programming languages of the assembler type, formed by mnemonics, which conceal the underlying machine code, are created and, consequently, software translator or set of programs are created that allow the programs written in the language of the programmer to be translated into the language that the machine understands.

In this way, more progress is made and a new step is reached that allows the programmer to give the computer orders that are closer to human reasoning and natural language, increasing the level of abstraction of orders and moving away from the complicated language of the machine .

The first "pre-computer" did not use electricity.

The first computer programmer was a woman and her name was Ada Lovelace.

We use the computer daily but there are many things we do not know about them. Online Schools has tried to list the most important historical events in the history of programming in this infographic.

Programming languages close the chasm between computers, which only work with binary numbers, and humans, who prefer to use words and other numbering systems.

The programs tell the computer what task to perform and how to do it, but to do so, it is necessary to enter these commands in a language that the system can understand. In principle, the computer only understands the instructions in machine code, that is, the specific one of the computer. However, from these are developed the so-called high and low level languages.

With this summary we can know the long process that this programation has sufred in the years to be the app that we know today
