How do you make a programming language?

Question

I thought of this when I was thinking of really hard challenges to do.

Answer 1

by using a programming language to create it. preferably a low level one

Answer 2

Start learning the very basic languages, such as BASIC.
Then you can make a derivative language from it.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good luck.

Answer 3

Depends on what you want. If you want to create a interpreter there are many tutorials and it's fairly easy with many langauges. If you want compiler for your language then you need to know pretty low level languages such as assembly and it's a pain. Either one you choose it's a great learning experience.

Answer 4

<EN-US>
To make a programming language you need to take a base of some existing programming paradigm (but not necesary if you dont want), do a lexic, sintactic and semantic analisis. You can start by reading some book or tutorial about compilers and automata, it will help you a lot; actually there are too many information about to how to create a programming language, you just need to investigate every phase of analisis to build your own compiler/interpreter.

<ES-MX>
Para poder realizar un lenguaje de programación debes tomar como base algún paradigma ya existente (aunque no es necesario), realizar análisis léxico, análisis sintáctico y análisis semántico. Un buen inicio es leer sobre teoría de compiladores y autómatas ya que realmente te ayudará de mucho; actualmente hay mucha información sobre el tema, sólo es cosa de investigar cada una de las fases del análisis para tu compilador y/o interprete.

"Are there any foreign programming languages?"

If you mean non-english based languages, yes there are, like Lexico (Spanish), GOST (Russian), and Chinese BASIC (Chinese). Here is the full list: http://research.omicsgroup.org/index.php/Non-English-based_programming_languages

Answer 6

good question

Answer 7

make programmimg language is not to hard butdude to make a programming language you hava to study a lot and research .

Answer 8

agreed

Answer 9

this is gonna be fun

Answer 10

we create new languages by using theory of computational language logics

after learning theory of computation we can make our own programming language with predefined syntax nd a compiler to check them and an executable file

Answer 11

just google "esoteric language programing" :-O

Answer 12

Definitely it's a difficult challenge you thought of, but for creating a programming language you need to know basic laws of theory of computations to create logical structure of your language.

further by using these theories you need to construct your own compiler

Answer 13

All u have to do is to first create a documentation for your language then create it's compiler by using C or C++
that's it.

Answer 14

Friend they call that anxiety, when you want to eat a mango at the apex of the tree before you leaner to climb, yaah I believe u can cheat by throwing stones at it but not every stone will be a catch. I felt the same when it was my first touch on C!!!!

Answer 15

try making a language based on python

Answer 16

first you learn this languages.then select the sector you want to craete is web development of app development

Answer 17

are there any foreign programming languages? I was just wondering.

Answer 18

What languages can be used for socket programming apart from c,Java?

Answer 19

java , html, css, php

Answer 20

for fun
and because i will stude this
