The Brief History of Programming Languages

Correction: The first date for the algorithm of the analytical machine should be closer to the mid 1830's, not 1883; as both Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage were no longer around during that year. The source I was referring to was incorrect. As someone famous once said somewhere; to know where you are going, you have to know where you have been. Therefore, whether you're studying computer science in college, you're a programming language enthusiast or a history buff; the brief history of programming languages will satisfy your unquenchable thirst for knowledge (maybe).
