What programming languages does Windows support out of the box?

Question

I know that most programming language have a compiler/interpreter that can be installed, but on an out-of-the-box Windows installation without any software installed except for what came with the computer, what programming languages are supported?

Answer 1

None. Easy to install JDK for free. Also Netbeans/Eclipse.



You can get a free version of visual studio so that you can do VB or C#

Answer 2

None is supported out the box because not everyone that owns a computer will be a programmer. But Microsoft makes it pretty easy to download their IDE's and SDK's. Same goes for Java,Python,etc..

Answer 3

You can write programs in DOS format using batch files for execution (with a .bat extension).

Also, Windows comes with a scripting language (that you can use to perform tasks, or pop-up windows, etc.) which is called visual basic script (extension .vbs).

(And of course since Windows comes with a web browsers, you can write .html programs and java script files, which both relate to web design).



Have fun!
