Major topics in the development of modern programming languages. Syntax specification, the evolution of programming languages (including abstract data types and object orientation, and contributions of C++ to language design), design and implementation of subprograms (including parameter passing techniques, and scope and lifetime of variables), run-time storage management (including garbage collection), and programming paradigms. Two nonprocedural programming paradigms: functional programming (illustrated by languages such as Lisp, Scheme, ML or Haskell) and logic programming (illustrated by languages such as Prolog, XSB or Coral).
