An early proposal for a [[high-level programming language]] was [[Plankalkül]], developed by [[Konrad Zuse]] for his [[Z1 (computer)|Z1 computer]] between 1942 and 1945 but not implemented at the time.<ref>In 1998 and 2000 compilers were created for the language as a historical exercise.

The first functioning programming languages designed to communicate instructions to a computer were written in the early 1950s. [[John Mauchly]]'s [[Short Code (computer language)|Short Code]], proposed in 1949, was one of the first high-level languages ever developed for an [[electronic computer]].<ref name=Sebesta>{{cite book |last=Sebesta |first=W.S. |date=2006 |title=Concepts of Programming Languages |page=44 |publisher=Pearson/Addison-Wesley |isbn=978-0-321-33025-3}}</ref> Unlike [[machine code]], Short Code statements represented [[Expression (mathematics)|mathematical expressions]] in understandable form. However, the program had to be [[Interpreter (computing)|interpreted]] into machine code every time it ran, making the process much slower than running the equivalent machine code.

The development of new programming languages continues, and some new languages appears with focus on providing a replacement for current languages. These new languages try to provide the advantages of a known language like C++ (versatile and fast) while adding safety or reducing complexity. Other new languages try to bring ease of use as provided by Python while adding performance as a priority. Also, the growing of Machine Learning and AI tools still plays a big rule behind these languages' development, where some visual languages focus on integrating these AI tools while other textual languages focus on providing more suitable support for developing them. <ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/blog/power-apps/introducing-the-new-copilot-features-for-power-fx/ | title=Introducing new Copilot features for Power Fx | website=[[Microsoft]] | date=29 April 2024 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.infoworld.com/article/2336275/carbon-language-aims-to-be-a-better-c-plus-plus.html | title=Carbon language aims to be a better C++ }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://devops.com/modular-makes-a-case-for-mojo-programming-language-based-on-python/ | title=Modular Makes a Case for Mojo Programming Language, Based on Python | date=5 April 2024 }}</ref>
