Is JavaScript really a direct descendant of First Order Logic?

  Seems unlikely, doesn't it? At least I'd say it inherits some syntax from the C-family of languages

  I think that's a joke, especially since INTERCAL preceded Javascript even though the former is listed as a descendant of the latter.

  JS is a descendant of Scheme, Self, and Java.

    JavaScript is a descendant of Java in the same way that someone who changes their surname to Washington is related to the president.

      The syntax was explicitly thrown away and reworked to look like Java, so, I’d say they’re related.

  That's a good one!
