What is The Difference Between F# And SGML, Programming Languages
F# is an Interpreted Programming Language, while SGML is a Markup Language
What are Interpreted Programming Languages
An interpreted language is a programming language for which most of its implementations execute instructions directly, without previously compiling a program into machine-language instructions. The interpreter executes the program directly, translating each statement into a sequence of one or more subroutines already compiled into machine code. (Wikipedia)
What are Markup Languages
A markup language is an artificial language that uses annotations to text that define how the text is to be displayed.
While F# is an Interpreted Programming Language, and SGML is a Markup Language
Let us now look at the difference between the two:
What is F# Programming Language – A brief synopsis
It targets the .NET Framework and supports both functional as well as imperative object-oriented programming. Don Syme at the Microsoft Research developed this language, which is now being developed at the Microsoft Developer Division. F Sharp, as it is called, will soon be integrated into the .NET Framework and Visual Studio.
What is SGML Programming Language – A brief synopsis
Standardized General Markup Language (SGML) has descended from IBM’s Generalized Markup Language. It is an ISO standard metalanguage that can define markup languages for documents. It was designed with the intent of sharing machine-readable documents of large projects that had to be retained for long years.
