Important Full Forms Related to Programming Languages

In this post i am going to mention some of the important full forms related to programming languages. I know, this is not very interesting or attractive information for you but yeah you need to care about it.

Especially, if you are an IT (information technology) guy. I am saying this because it can be a very embarrassing moment for you if someone asks (any junior, teacher, and interviewer) you any full form related to programming languages and you are unable to give a correct reply.


Recently, a seminar was held in my college. During the discussion we found that more than 60% computer science student were not familiar with the full forms related to programming languages. I am a student of electronic department, yet i was familiar with almost 50% programming language’s full forms. I noticed many of my senior mates were embarrassed during the discussion session. This incident forced me to come up with this article.
