This diagram shows five popular programming languages and one common use for each:

  • Python is widely used for Data Science because it has many libraries for analyzing data.
  • JavaScript is mainly used for Web Development to make websites interactive.
  • Java is popular for building Mobile Apps and Backend Systems because it runs on many devices.
  • SQL is used for Database Management to store and retrieve data efficiently.
  • HTML is the language for Web Page Structure, defining how web pages are organized.

Arrows connect each language to its main use, making it easy to see the relationship.

Variations - 2 Challenges
[intermediate] Draw a diagram showing 7 popular programming languages and two uses for each. Connect each language to its uses with arrows.
[advanced] Draw a flowchart that helps someone choose a programming language based on whether they want to build websites, mobile apps, or analyze data. Include at least 4 languages in your flowchart.
