What are the common things that each programming language must have?

By learning common things first it becomes easier to navigate through all programming languages

Comments, Logging, Best Practices and Logical Structure. Easy to read code with comments from the developer make the code easier to troubleshoot. They also make the code easier to build upon and add additional features and such in the future. Logging also helps with fault isolation, in the event the program breaks and it helps others apply patches. Lastly, Logical Structure and Best Practices go hand in hand. All of these areas are anecdotal. However, they keep future operations, feature addition and optimizations in mind.

Sri Raman Prasad I believe there are lots of similarities and commonalities with various programming languages. Most answers provided here are anecdotal or personal preference, mine included. However, there is no argument that brilliance in the basics will prove to be the most advantageous across all programming languages. On the other hand, the most disadvantageous a person can do is "go through the motions" or to do something believing it is not important.

loops , conditional statements, jump statements & operators are the most common stuff in all programming languages. I don't know but data types may be common for some languages.
