Some of you might have tried V language - vlanguage.org - V language.

It is actually a new programming language that can process natural language. Hence users can give algorithms in plain English without following any syntax at all.

The main issue associated with the project is that we have enough people in the Linux (or UNIX like)background. But our windows porting section has only few active developers. This made me to make an open request in this forum. You may also view the currently public packages in the download page

The development versions are available only to developers

The day that computers can process natural language is the day that normal people will be able to program without an in depth background in CS / CSE, particularly in programming.

Although I'm not a windows developer, this sounds like a really cool project and I hope to see it in its finished stage :D

Ditto :D

It will be a while before computers are processing natural language well. AI needs to improve a lot.

But it would be great fun! I want to live for that long...

It looks like there is still some language restrictions on it... not natural language at all.

[marwex89]

Yet.

Why are people happy!, we will lose our jobs or our salary will severly decrease if this kind of languages improved

Hmm lol Time to consider Network engineering

I agree, It would be cool but while programming still takes some skills we have job security. Plus programming in a type of pseudo code dose not sound like much fun.

Programmers will still be needed, but not as many. In order to develop such programs, you still need to have a thorough understanding of assembly and machine code. So jobs for us cs majors will likely shift from high level jobs to low level jobs. I've started on the low level machine code, and it isn't near as fun, so I agree with yousef616 when he says time to consider network engineering lol.

Just hold on a second, here...
Hey, I mean, making it understandable English won't make programming much easier, IMO.

It's not the language that is hard, after all! I understand C syntax better than English, I think, as English has a vocabulary of something like 600 000 words... No, the syntax won't make it easier to do programming, really, will it? But it will be cool to say: "Hey, godd*amn stupid old computer! Why don't ya move that variable to A00F6, eh?" :D I'd like that...
