programming languages summarised

[jeeswg]

It's not always easy to get a feel for programming languages that you haven't used before, or to understand programming languages of the past. Also, encyclopaedia definitions don't often shed much light.

If anyone has any good sources for videos/websites where single or multiple programming languages are discussed/summarised/compared, I would be most grateful.
