Would you want to create your own programming language?
If yes, what would you call it and what would it be used for?

I think finding a good name is as hard as designing a language itself.

Maybe naming it after an ancient Greek scientist would be nice.

For some reason I’m naming mine after fish, mostly…

But yeah, apart from a pretty simple C family syntax lang I’ve used for exploring and practicing compiler hacking I’ve designed a minimalistic dynamically typed scripting language heavily influenced by Smalltalk, a simple functional Lua-targeting ML family scripting language for game dev with Godot, and some others. Out of my designs I actually am most excited about a s-expression based functional first call-by-value lambda calculus based scripting language… I have yet to implement anything of note, but one must have projects to look forward to, eh?

Yes, but APL beat me to the name, so no.

S language, shortened to Slang

Sudo4Life
(I don't wanna create mine though.)

FInChat

NoRouxls
(It's pronounced "rules")

Scatlang

And for the first snippet:

Babobeh-bopbopahdop-babababa
Babedi-babobeh-babopbedop-bababapi
Babedi-babobeh-popbopbedop-babobeh
Bopbopbedop-babobeh-popbopbedop-bababababehdi

frigid …. ‘cos it would be no fucking good.

YourMomma language.

It allows things to be automated and yells at you when it runs. Reminds you of shit you gotta do and makes exclamations about how are you ever gonna make it in life. Periodically says prayers about you so you can here them. Bitch slaps you occasionally and says wait until your father gets home.

Then people can talk about the repo used to develop the language. They can say they forked YourMomma last night.

Dogecode, it doesn’t really work, but Elon is gonna tweet about it and the journalists are gonna connect it to dogecoin, raising the value and holy doggos I am rich.

@piratefox this is definitely the way to go, invent a language, market it as crypto based , makes use of NFT's and it is optimized for web 3.0 ( add as many tech sounding acronyms here)

Then sit back relax and watch Devrant become more popular as managers force you to migrate your products to my language.

It's called Orchid and it's a pure functional scripting language with heavy focus on convenient integration in Rust programs. The STL isn't really usable yet and I don't have a tutorial because a good starter tutorial would make use of the STL. Here's the repo if interested: https://github.com/lbfalvy/orchid
Its intended use case is a logical extension of a config file that can define conditional behavior and state machines.

It was originally going to be statically typed and compiled but I made it my bachelor's project so I had to deliver something. A type system may still come when I find the patience.
