Comparison of integrated development environments. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The following tables list notable software packages that are nominal IDEs; standalone tools such as source code editors and GUI builders are not included. ActionScript[edit] Main article: ActionScript Ada[edit] BASIC[edit] C/C++[edit] C#[edit] Common Lisp[edit] Main article: Common Lisp Component Pascal[edit] Eiffel[edit] Fortran[edit] Groovy[edit] Haskell[edit] Java[edit] JavaScript[edit] Lua[edit] Pascal, Object Pascal[edit] Perl[edit] PHP[edit] Python[edit] Racket[edit] Ruby[edit] Scala[edit] Small Basic (Microsoft)[edit] Smalltalk[edit] Tcl[edit] WLanguage[edit] Unclassified[edit] See also[edit] References[edit] Integrated development environment. An integrated development environment (IDE) or interactive development environment is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development.

An IDE normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. Most modern IDEs offer Intelligent code completion features. Overview[edit] One aim of the IDE is to reduce the configuration necessary to piece together multiple development utilities, instead providing the same set of capabilities as a cohesive unit. Reducing that setup time can increase developer productivity, in cases where learning to use the IDE is faster than manually integrating all of the individual tools. Tighter integration of all development tasks has the potential to improve overall productivity beyond just helping with setup tasks.

History[edit] IDEs initially became possible when developing via a console or terminal. One of the first IDEs with a plug-in concept was Softbench. Topics[edit] GNU. I/ɡnuː/[2][3] is a Unix-like computer operating system developed by the GNU Project. It is composed wholly of free software. It is based on the GNU Hurd kernel and is intended to be a "complete Unix-compatible software system"[1][4][5] GNU is a recursive acronym for "GNU's Not Unix! ",[1][6] chosen because GNU's design is Unix-like, but differs from Unix by being free software and containing no Unix code.[7] Development of GNU was initiated by Richard Stallman in 1983[1][8] and was the original focus of the Free Software Foundation (FSF), but no stable release of GNU yet exists as of January 2014[update].[1][9][10][11] However, non-GNU kernels, most famously the Linux kernel, can also be used with GNU software.[12][13][14] Stallman views GNU as a "technical means to a social end.

History[edit] The plan for the GNU ("GNU's Not Unix! ") The goal was to bring a wholly free software operating system into existence. Components[edit] GNU variants[edit] Copyright, GNU licenses, and stewardship[edit] Structured Programming. Background Since the invention by Von Neumann of the stored program computer, computer scientists have known that a tremendous power of computing equipment was the ability to alter its behavior, depending on the input data. Calculating machines had, for some time, been able to perform fixed arithmetic operations on data, but the potential of machines capable of making decisions opened up many new possibilities. Machines that could make decisions were capable of sorting records, tabulating and summarizing data, searching for information, and many more advanced operations that could not even be imagined at the time. In early programming languages, like Fortran (first invented in 1954) and various low level machine languages, the goto statement allowed the computer to deviate from the sequential execution of the program instructions.

However, the increasingly complex code that resulted from goto statements became harder and harder to maintain. 1. Add flour. 2. Example: Washing Dishes 3. Year 2000 problem. The (French) sign reads "3 January 1900" instead of "3 January 2000" The Year 2000 problem (also known as the Y2K problem, the Millennium bug, the Y2K bug, or simply Y2K) was a problem for both digital (computer-related) and non-digital documentation and data storage situations which resulted from the practice of abbreviating a four-digit year to two digits. In 1997, The British Standards Institute (BSI) developed a standard, DISC PD2000-1,[1] which defines "Year 2000 Conformity requirements" as four rules: No valid date will cause any interruption in operations.Calculation of durations between, or the sequence of, pairs of dates will be correct whether any dates are in different centuries.In all interfaces and in all storage, the century must be unambiguous, either specified, or calculable by algorithmYear 2000 must be recognized as a leap year It identifies two problems that may exist in many computer programs.

Background[edit] Programming problem[edit] The need for bit conservation[edit] COBOL. COBOL (/ˈkoʊbɒl/, an acronym for common business-oriented language) is a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use. It is imperative, procedural and, since 2002, object-oriented. COBOL is primarily used in business, finance, and administrative systems for companies and governments. In 1997, Gartner Group estimated that there were a total of 200 billion lines of COBOL in existence which ran 80% of all business programs.[2] It was designed in 1959 by the Conference on Data Systems Languages (CODASYL) and was largely based on previous programming language design work by Grace Hopper, commonly referred to as "the (grand)mother of COBOL".[3][4][5] It was created as part of a US Department of Defense effort to create a portable programming language for data processing.

COBOL has an English-like syntax which was designed to be self-documenting and highly readable. History and specification[edit] Background[edit] COBOL 60[edit] The cover of the COBOL 60 report. Unity (game engine) Unity is a cross-platform[2] game engine with a built-in IDE developed by Unity Technologies. It is used to develop video games for web plugins, desktop platforms, consoles and mobile devices. It grew from an OS X supported game development tool in 2005 to a multi-platform game engine.[3] Gone Home is a 2013 video game built with the Unity engine The graphics engine uses Direct3D (Windows, Xbox 360), OpenGL (Mac, Windows, Linux), OpenGL ES (Android, iOS), and proprietary APIs (consoles).

There is support for bump mapping, reflection mapping, parallax mapping, screen space ambient occlusion (SSAO), dynamic shadows using shadow maps, render-to-texture and full-screen post-processing effects.[4] Unity also includes the Unity Asset Server - a version control solution for the developer's game assets and scripts. Unity supports deployment to multiple platforms. Upcoming platforms include PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. New features include DirectX 11 support and Mecanim animation. Painting on Water.

One of the challenges in creating objective statements about Socionics is that the very nature of the field invites the potential for bias.

For a simple demonstration, consider someone trying to ascertain another person’s strong IM elements by asking "What do you think you can do better than everybody else? " The question itself reflects a competitive nature, which may not be equally shared by all people. Furthermore, it is likely that some types would phrase this question differently from others; and similarly, some socionic types would have an easier time responding to the question when phrased that way. Categories of potential causes for systemic biases in socionics include those shown in the table of contents below. Type, quadra, or dichotomy-centric biases Work by socionics theorists of a particular type or quadra may be subject to point-of-view biases inherent to their own type or quadra.

By BikeRadar US | Monday, March 26, 2012 7.15pm A group of chase riders string it out in pursuit of leader Dan Chabanov Red Hook Criterium View Thumbnail Gallery With rain threatening, roughly 100 riders took the line for a mass start Red Hook night crit in Brooklyn, NY this past Saturday night, 24 March. With a 9:15pm start time, and variably lit ‘urban’ course around Brooklyn’s cruise ship terminal, the race is one part night crit, and one part alley cat race, that now holds infamous status.

The Red Hook Crit used to be a pure alley cat (with racers dodging traffic as well as fellow competitors), however, now in its fifth edition the underground nature of the race has given way to big crowds and a unique draw to racers around the nation. This year, the first few laps were rough-and-tumble with riders fighting hard to establish a lead group. As those in the raw-looking peloton grew tired there were a handful of crashes, mainly in the course’s tight chicane. How to create click-to-call links for mobile browsers : html5. How to create click-to-call links for mobile browsers. Remember: most mobile devices are also phones!

So, why not create link-to-call actions? If you’re creating a business guide, or even for your own unique phonebook, most people will prefer to call a person instead of filling in a form on the device. In this article, we analyze the new URI schemes, some meta tags and also how to call Skype or Facetime applications from a website. This content is partially extracted from my book “Programming the Mobile Web”, published by O’Reilly. The tel: scheme The first de facto standard (copied from the Japanese i-Mode standards) is to use the tel: scheme. It was proposed as a standard in the RFC 5341, but be careful because most of the parameters proposed there do not work on any device. Today, we can find support for tel: URI-scheme in almost every mobile device, including: Safari on iOS, Android Browser (image above), webOS Browser (image above), Symbian browser, Internet Explorer, Opera Mini and low-end devices browsers.

Kim Dotcom: US Military Had 15,634 Megaupload Accounts. In recent weeks the battle has continued to save the data stored at the now-defunct site Megaupload.

Contrary to the image painted by the entertainment industries, untold numbers of people used the file-hosting service for completely legitimate sharing. Today we can reveal that not only did people at the Senate, Department of Homeland Security, FBI and NASA hold Megaupload accounts, so did more than 15,600 members of the US Military. Ever since Megaupload was dismantled in January there have been concerns about data being held on the site’s servers. While the MPAA and RIAA insist that the site was simply a huge piracy hub, the facts point to a much bigger picture of people using the site for countless legitimate transfers of files simply too big to email. As mentioned earlier this month, Megaupload’s legal team is working hard to reunite site users with their data, an aim also shared by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) with their MegaRetrieval campaign.

Google's Semantic Search to revolutionize the traditional SEO. Until now, a lot of stress was laid on the use of right keywords and key phrases, in order to gain the search engine momentum; and even though Google updated its algorithms, namely Venice, Panda, Search Plus Your World etc, the importance held by keywords remained unaltered. However now the Google update algorithm is going to be moved to semantic search technology, something which will bring a brand new element in the whole game – the human element! Understanding the semantic search! Semantic basically means making a term much more meaningful and thoughtful. Up until now, Google blindly followed the keywords being placed in the searched query and promptly displayed the results.

However, starting from the day the feature of semantic searches is introduced, Google will dive in further to understand the real meaning behind the words being searched for. If in case you are wondering what exactly led to this change, well the reason is Apple’s Siri. Introduction of the Knowledge Graph And so on. Sony preparing Chrome OS laptop, Google working on UI overhaul. Documents submitted to the FCC reveal that Sony is preparing to launch a VAIO laptop with Google's Chrome OS operating system. The new Chromebook has an 11.6-inch display, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, USB ports, an HDMI output, and SD card slot.

Laptop Reviews, which drew attention to the FCC documents this weekend, believes the system may be powered by an ARM-based processor. They note the documents list the CPU as a T25. That could refer to an NVIDIA Tegra 250 T25, an SoC with a dual-core 1.2GHz Arm Cortex A9. Previous Chromebooks have all used Intel's Atom CPU. Samsung and Acer launched the first commercially-available Chromebooks last year after Google conducted a public beta test with its Cr-48 prototype. Google has worked to improve the visibility of the platform and increase awareness among consumers. Chrome OS is a browser-centric platform that is dominated by Google's Web browser. Some fundamental capabilities were missing, such as the ability to move tabs between windows. Valentin Stip - Anytime Will Do. Teacher Nails Class Clown. The Third & The Seventh.

How TV Ruined Your Life - s01e05 - Progress. Petitions. Official White House Response to At least double NASA’s annual budget to one penny for every government dollar spent. By Phil Larson Thank you for signing this petition. We share your view that NASA is a driver of innovation and economic growth, a creator of high-skilled and high-paying jobs, and a force for inspiration in the American people -- especially our youth. That's why President Obama has set NASA on course for a new and exciting chapter of American space exploration, one that will see more discoveries, scientific breakthroughs, and, ultimately, more Americans in space going to places never before visited. Even in the face of tough fiscal challenges, the President's plan charts a path towards continued American leadership in space by making every penny count. By investing in American companies -- and American ingenuity -- we are spurring free-market competition to give taxpayers more bang for the buck, while enabling NASA to do what it does best -- reach for the heavens. creator.
