Explanation

Rasmus Lerdorf created PHP (originally Personal Home Page, now PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) in 1994. PHP became one of the most popular server-side scripting languages for web development. James Gosling created Java, Bjarne Stroustrup created C++, and 'Rossum' appears to be a truncated reference to Guido van Rossum (Python).
