As a software engineer, one of my joys in life is to learn new things. I can't describe the
|
||||
amusement of learning a new technology or steping forward in the world of science. If you experienced
|
||||
such a delight, you'll know that how addictive it is. I can't satisfy my hunger for knowledge,

such a delight, you would know that how addictive it is. I can't satisfy my hunger for knowledge and
|
||||
it might sounds like a gloat but it's truly joyful (ok mate, you love to "read", get on with it).
|
||||
|
||||
Programming languages are the most common tool among programmers and software engineers (Duh!).
|
||||
I believe that learning new programming languages helps us to widen our vision as engineers and
|
||||
help us improve our mentality about software architecture and design. So obviously I never say "No"

to learning a new programming language and because of that I have lots of experience with different
|
||||
languages. Each language taught me tons of new things and helped me enhance my skills. I've studied
|
||||
many languages and have a long list of them as my "To Learn" list.

|

Almost a year ago, I was frustrated with Python and nagging to my wife about it (She always listens to
|
||||
my gibberish). All of a sudden she said to me that "Why don't you write you own language ?". That made
|
||||
me thinking, "Is it a good idea to do so ????".

People have different routines for learning. I'm one of those people who likes to learn new
|
||||
things by understanding how it works first. I'd like to start my learning process by understanding
|
||||
the laws of the universe. In this case, "universe" being the implementation and theory behind
|
||||
the thing I'm trying to learn. It might seems like crazy idea but that's how I learn better.
|
||||
For example, when I was a teenager and was learning about how to use Gnu/Linux, I was so
|
||||
obsessed with internal of a linux distribution to a degree that I decided to build my own

For instance, when I was a teenager and was learning about how to use Gnu/Linux, I was so
|
||||
obsessed with internal of a Linux distribution to a degree that I decided to build my own
|

distribution. Of course as a teenager I was naive and dreamed about my distro ( Which I used
|
||||
to call Liniera ) to become a well know and popular distribution. Aside from my childish dreams
|
||||
I learned a lot by creating a distribution. Learned about linux kernel, boot process, bootloaders

I learned a lot by creating a distribution. Learned about Linux kernel, boot process, bootloaders
|
||||
and tons of other complicated pieces that normally people don't get to know at first (I was using
|
||||
LFS and Debian tools). So after that delightful but tough experience, I always try to build a minimal
|
||||
prototype of what ever I'm trying to learn in order to comprehend the universe of that thing which

|

helped me a lot to this day.

Based on my history, routines and the question that my wife has planted in my mind and after about a year

researching and thinking about it, Finally I realized that it can be a good idea to create a new

researching and thinking about it, Finally I realized it can be a good idea to create a new
|
||||
programming language. To be honest it is not a task to be taken lightly. Whenever I created something
|
||||
that wasn't out of my needs, I just failed. But this time I thing creating a programming language can
|
||||
that wasn't out of my needs, I just failed. But this time I think creating a programming language can
|
||||
massively help me to gain a better grasp of "the universe". Trying to overcome this challenge will help
|
||||
me to grow and be a better engineer despite the fact that this new language may not even make it to the
|
||||
list of known programming languages. I'm fine with that as long as it pushes me a step forward in my way
|
||||
of life and brings me joy of wondering around in the wold of science and engineering.

I'm going to write more blog posts about my journey through this humongous task as a journal for myself and other

enthusiastic people. After all it will be a hobby of mine and not my day to day job. So I'll take my time and
|
||||
move slowly but steady.
