Can you tell us more about the course that you took? Any web links to 
interesting info etc.?

As programming languages are tools that allow programmers to create, it 
is indeed interesting to study the evolutionary process.

I also will like to recommend a book. This runs counter to the concept 
of programming languages. It touches on the idea of programming itself.. 
strongly tied to mathematics/numerical methods. (phew! i definitely will 
not be able to complete the book in my lifetime!)
