Taking Your First Steps Towards Loving and Mastering the R Programming Language
Leveling-up your marketable skills
Quick Round-Up for the New Programmers
If you’re like me, you are delving into programming because you want to level-up your skills. This might be out of curiosity or it might be a change of career. Perhaps you are looking to reach that next pay level. Whatever the reason, this section is for people starting out like me who need a little “refresher” on the things that are not obvious to us, but programmers take for granted.
- What is a programming language?
They are a type of computer language. I hear you, we got that part already but surprisingly there are many types of computer languages. Programming’s primary purpose is to tell machines what to do.
2. How are programming languages classified?
There is no one way to classify programming languages but you are welcome to try, and it is useful to do so. The abilities of some languages usually overlap categories. For example, R is used for statistics so it certainly can be categorized as a functional language, but it also uses an object-oriented paradigm which means in can be classified that way as well. For this reason, the next question might be more important.
