What are the four programming languages?

Thank you!!!What are the four programming languages?
Ok heres a different approach:


Machine or CPU instruction based languages. Assembly Language for a CPU is a mnemonic form of the CPU's instruction set.


Compiled Languages. Written in high level language and compiled to machine or CPU instructions. C, C++ and Fortran are examples.


Interpreted Languages. In which the high level language is translated to virtual machine language which implements an abstract processor. Java and Basic are examples.


Scripted Languages. Which are interpreted from text input directly to some intermediate executable form. PERL, PHP, Pyhton and Javascript are examples.What are the four programming languages?
There are many HUNDREDS, possibly thousands of languages





The five main ones in use today are





Java


C


C++


PHP


VB





See listed sources for a full list of most used langauges


___





Someone listed .NET as a language, it is infact a framework, used with multiple languages
There are a LOT more than 4, but some of them are C, C++, Python, Perl, Java, C#, Basic, and it goes on and on and on.
You are correct that there are exactly 4 programming languages.





These are:


C++


Java


C#


and BASIC
There are a lot more than 4...The four most popular/well-known are probably





Java

.NET
Perl Java C VB
