I'd like to ask if you can suggest any programming language aside from C, Java and COBOL which is easier to make your own programming language? I need it in our case study. Here is the instruction:

Make your own programming language aside from using the common languages (C, Java and COBOL). Use imperative languages as your programming paradigm.

(Please help me. If you can't understand the instruction by all means please reply to the thread or directly to me. Thanks. :) )

Would you be able to use C++ (it isn't C)?

If you mean easiest to learn: I'd put in a vote for Delphi. I've been working with it lately and it's very friendly.

If you mean easiest to create (an interpreter for), BASIC or VBScript wouldn't be bad.

I would use the one you know best. Lots of compilers are written in C.

There are languages and tools specifically for this purpose, such as Yacc.
