Today's digital world is a reverse tower of Babel. It takes all sorts of different languages to build it. It is this phenomenon that Aleks Krotoski explores in this final edition.
Aleks Krotoski introduces the programming language that people probably interact with on a daily basis more than any other.
Basic is the little language that could. As language of choice for home computing in the 1980s, it became iconic.
Inefficient, verbose and ugly, yet by the 1990s, 80 per cent of the world's business software was written in Cobol. Aleks Krotoski explores why.

The commentary from the experts is what really makes this podcast amazing . Provides good overview to both technical and non-technical audience.
I quite enjoyed this short series on programming languages. There are only a few episodes, so give it a try.
I have a boring job at work when I decided to give this podcast a listen. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED these episodes and would love to know much more about the histories of all the computer languages. Great job! Please make more, it's so sad that there's only 5 :(
It manages to give an insight into coding, without alienating non-technical listeners. It does well with the time slots it has, but it falls down here and there by skimming the subjects so lightly that it misses some crucial points. For example, the one about BASIC spends most of its time banging the BBC Micro drum, and merely shoehorns Apple and Microsoft (the biggest players in the market) in the last 38 seconds.
I wish there were more! One for all the programming languages out there. Fascinating background info.
