Microsoft’s New Programming Language ‘Bosque’ Keeps Your Code Simple

Image
Microsoft has  launched  a new programming language called Bosque. The company says Bosque has been designed to write code that is “simple, obvious, and easy to reason” for both humans and machines. The purpose of this open-source project is to develop a functional programming language that prevents “accidental complexity” in coding and development. Codes generated in Bosque language are supposed to be simple and easy by adopting algebraic operations and avoiding techniques that create complexity. Bosque is the brainchild of Microsoft’s computer scientist Mark Marron and is based on syntax and types of TypeScript. It also uses the semantics ML and Node/JavaScript. Marron describes the new language as a move to shift from the paradigm of structured programming that became popular since the 1970s. In a structured programming model, the flow control is managed through loops, conditionals, and subroutines. Bosque gets rid of sources of complexity like loops, mutable state, an

Everything To Know About Web Browsers And Their Engines

You might already have heard the news: Google has more or less won the browser wars as Microsoft has started to rebuild its Edge web browser right from scratch. However, this time the company will make use of the open-source Chromium code which underpins many other web browsers including, Opera Brave Vivaldi Google Chrome (of course) And since Microsoft is going to do it right from the ground up, it is not a stretch to think that Microsoft is actually switching to a completely different (and perhaps better) web browser rendering engine. With that out of the way, you may be wondering, What is a web browser engine? Moreover, how does a web browser’s engine affect a given online consumer’s web browsing experience? In this guide, we will go through all the necessary details that you need to know about in order to really differentiate between different web browsers. You see, whenever you are in the process of selecting a web browser or changing a web browser, you a

For beginners in the world of programming, the biggest dilemma is to decide  where to begin  or which language one should master for career benefits. At times, professional coders also face a situation where learning a new language seems more fruitful. Whatever may be the reason, here is a list of the most popular programming languages across the world to know which languages are ruling the charts. This list of top programming languages is based on the data sourced from  TIOBE Programming Community Index, which is a popular indicator of the popularity of programming languages. TIOBE calculates the ratings by analyzing data from Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Wikipedia, Amazon, Baidu, and YouTube. Variables like the number of professional developers worldwide, training courses, and third-party vendors have also factored in this list. Top 10 Programming Languages In 2019 The following list contains the top 20 programming languages and their performance in comparison to last year
