Programming languages, regional?
 

do ppl in non english speaking countries, code PERL and C and shit in their native languages? or is it all done in english, even in asia? i am assuming universally english, like HTML

shrug ?

should all be in english

All English here ... (NL)

Code itself in english but defenitions for variables, variable names,
strings and functions are often in native language. I've stumbled
across russian, german, spanish, french, swedish code which
sucks ass if people try to debug it :mad:

DynaMite

In Russia they use Cheat++

I would say english is the language of choice in sweden.

I dont believe people are answering that :>
LOL :1orglaugh

i dont believe you are wasting my oxygen

gebrauche hofte:

Alsch (a=1) UND (b=2);
{
schreibenF('Halloo, das Wereld!');
Fur 1 TILL 3 gehen_sie_nach 2;
}

well, if you modify the compiler, you can change the keywords in the language too

Sorry if I offended anyone by thinking its a totally funny question.
Theoretically there can be a programming language in any language in the universe.
In practice what matters is the compiler.
Dont expect to see Microsoft/Borland/GNU/... c++ non-english compilers
Dont expect to find Java/Perl/PHP/ASP/C#/... non-english compiler.
Computer languages just happend to be english based
Why is that? maybe has to do with the fact that english is the formal language of computers.
Even Chinese word processors are coded in an english language compiler :1orglaugh

If you found a non english version of a knowen computer language it will be a nice freak on nature. It means that some bored programmer took the time to translate the syntax of the language :)

Nobodey will know how to program it though :winkwink:

I think that u use Jerk++ LOL :Graucho

Good question, never thought about it.... one would assume they would be fairly universal.
