What is The Difference Between Turing And ICI, Programming Languages
Turing is a Compiled Programming Language, while ICI is an Interpreted Programming Language
What are Compiled Programming Languages
A compiled language is a programming language whose implementations are typically compilers (translators that generate machine code from source code), and not interpreters (step-by-step executors of source code, where no pre-runtime translation takes place). (Wikipedia)
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)
While Turing is a Compiled Programming Language, and ICI is an Interpreted Programming Language
Let us now look at the difference between the two:
What is Turing Programming Language – A brief synopsis
It was developed by Ric Holt and James Cordy of the University of Toronto, Canada, in 1982. It was named in honor of the British computer scientist, Alan Turing. This Pascal-like language is a freeware since 2007.
What is ICI Programming Language – A brief synopsis
Designed by Tim Long in 1992, ICI is a general purpose interpreted computer programming language. It supports dynamic typing, flexible data types and other language constructs similar to C.
