Welcome to Rosetta Code

Rosetta Code is a programming chrestomathy site. The idea is to present solutions to the same task in as many different languages as possible, to demonstrate how languages are similar and different, and to aid a person with a grounding in one language in learning another. Rosetta Code currently has 1,271 tasks, and covers 942 languages, though we do not have solutions to every task in every language.

A variety of tasks are listed, and visitors to this site are invited to solve the tasks in the language of their choice. The tasks cover everything from the mundane Empty Program to the esoteric Towers of Hanoi.

While there's plenty to read and study, you can always contribute your own code. You can also connect with the rest of the Rosetta Code community at the Village Pump, or on any page's Talk page.
