Episode Synopsis "Name that Language"

In this episode we explore the many programming languages that are out there.  Who knew that there were more than 700 computer programming languages.  Some sites say that there are as many as 8,900 computer programming languages.  So, we take a look at a handful of programming language.  We try to figure out where do they come from and what are they used for.  We take a dive into compilers and interpreters, or at least the difference between the two.  We also wade in the waters of Python and Scratch.  What are their pros and cons.  This episode is not too technical, but there are some valuable nuggets to glean from the episode.  Join Bob (the Geek) and Charlotte (the Pixie) as they try to "Name that Language".
