Small Talk!!

Small talk was invented in 1972 by a group named Xerox PARC. The group included Alan Kay, Adele Goldberg and Dan Ingalls

It is an object oriented, dynamically typed reflective programming language.Today, smalltalk’s impact includes the ability to teach people with little background about coding, and teach them programming. It gave us JAVA, .net and more extensions.

Smalltalk is not a predecessor, although it was influenced by many other programming languages. It also influenced many other programming languages after it.
