Explanation of Solution

Single language for all Programming domains:

Even though the idea of one programming language for all the programming domains is not very popular and not even much supported but it has some benefits too.

  • As we know that currently for different domains there exist specialized programming languages.
  • Also there are many different domains where programming comes in handy. So, a programmer who learns language specialized for one domain cannot easily shift from one domain to other domain.
  • As, for moving to any other domain, he/she will have to first learn the language used specifically for programming in that domain. So, it basically restricts programmers to work in very limited domains...
