The inside of a website
Usually one of the first things you learn
when you start programming is “Hello World”. “Hello World” is simply a small
application that outputs the words “Hello World” onscreen.
The masochists at mycplus.com wrote the
famous “Hello World” application in 300
different programming languages!
It is quite an accomplishment and you have
to wonder where they got the documentation to do the code in obscure languages
such as Fjölnir
and MUF.
I suppose I can Google it, but there is no way that I am Googling MUF on my
work PC. Stupid joke out of the way, let’s continue.
Relevant to this blog would be the three languages
HTML, PHP, SQL and possibly Java Script.
When somebody types http://DigitalLiquorRSA.blogspot.com
in their web browser their web browser sends a request to the Blogspot server
for the website called Digital Liquor.
The Blogspot server will then use the SQL language
to query their database to get the content of my site. They will then use PHP
to build the website and send it back to the web browser that will then use
HTML to display the website on your computer. Java Script will then handle your
interactions with the page such as clicking on buttons.
There! Easy! Anybody can do it.
For the full list of programming languages
go the My
CPlus article.
