@thmnmlst with all due respect, you haven't heard at least of c?

@thmnmlst you write the compiler, usually. :)

@thmnmlst re: Programming a new programming language - Wow, I should tell you that is one interesting field. It's a separate field of study in CS in itself. I'm taking a peek into it, and it's simply fascinating.

PS: You have these languages whose interpreter/compiler is also written in the same language! (Mind = blown)

Dennis Ritchie is a god.
Just read "The C Programming Language" and your mind is blown...!

@thmnmlst oh you wrote and meant "i don't know", not "i haven't heard of". my bad.
