I have been working on this since July, 2017 to see how things works under the hook.
Now that I have a the basics of every programming language, i feel like sharing and getting the input of the gurus in the house
Who knows - this may be one of the first production ready Nigerian Programming Language

Keep it up

I WANT TO UNDERSTAND THE BASICS THINGS ON PROGRAMING AND SOME USEFUL TERMINOLOGIES

the name sha.... you should name it something like bole, okra, or after a Nigerian food

If you want create a Nigerian programming language why don't you use a Nigerian language

For example :

Instead of
print ("How are you"

It can be
jade ("Bawo ni"

Great job.

Is it printLn() or println()?
As everything seems to be of 'var' type, why not do away with type declaration entirely?
What's your intent with the language? Just for fun and bragging rights, I assume? Because there's no real incentive for people to use it, over C or Python.

You did well for yourself bro, but why are you guys giving us syntax that look odd like this , just like old time Fortran. I strongly believe you started programming with java

you should try to simplify things than using function calls like printLn(), what's the use of "capital L"

you should also give your language another name,there is a language that goes by that name, and has been announced right here on NairaLand.

Strongly typed languages are the best there is, non typed will easily confuse you(for me i dislike them).
Maybe he did it for the fun of it, or to learn how everything works underneath, if he really write all this things he announced, and not CnP, without knowledge of technical background.

Because that's what most people do (i don't mean to be rude), most of them don't have the zeal to learn.
