What is The Difference Between Turing And SGML, Programming Languages
Turing is a Compiled Programming Language, while SGML is a Markup 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 Markup Languages
A markup language is an artificial language that uses annotations to text that define how the text is to be displayed.
While Turing is a Compiled Programming Language, and SGML is a Markup 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 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.
