Rosetta Code is a wiki-based website that features ways to solve various programming problems in many different programming languages.[1]
Website
[change | change source]Rosetta Code was created in 2007 by Michael Mol.[2] The site's content is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License 1.2, though some components may have two licenses under less strict terms.[3]
The examples of Rosetta Code shows how to get the result in various ways,[4][5] and how "the same" task can be done in different programming languages.[6]
As of 22 February 2024[update], Rosetta Code has:[7]
- 1,266 computer programming tasks (or problems)
- 404 additional draft programming tasks
- 933 computer programming languages that are used to solve tasks
Data and structure
[change | change source]The Rosetta Code site is organized as a browsable cross-section of programming problems and programming languages. A programming problem's page displays solutions contributed by visitors in various programming languages, allowing different solutions to be compared to the programming problem.
Each programming language has its own page, which contains a list of programming problems that have solutions in that programming language. For example, a task that has a solution in the C programming language will appear in the listing for the C programming language, and if the same task has a solution in the Ruby programming language, the task will also appear in the listing for the Ruby programming language.
