Can you make your language in C?

Question

I want to make a language called Supercode using C as base. Here are the stuff I already added to my list.

Say - printf
Take - scanf (or for input)
String - char *
Integer - int
Float - float
Chr - char
Long - long long
Double_int - double
State - bool
Right - true
Not - false
Add - +
Remove - -
Multi - *
Divi - /
Backup - return
Stop - break
Go - continue
Strlk - strcmp
When - if
But - else
For - for

The "Hello, (name)!" code:

function main() {
take(string, a, "What's your name?\n");
say("Hello, [answer].\n");
}

Is it possible and can you show me how?

Also, if possible, can you combine languages to build a language?

Answer 1

NND Songs & Medleys to go along with coffeeunderrun if you do combine languages I would move to cpp then I would use codeblocks...

Answer 2

BroFar Yeah, something like that.

Answer 3

coffeeunderrun Basically, what I am referring to is like a Pythonic version of C with a bit of Java-like syntax and putting up new command-line arguments.

For example, this is what say does:

say("Hello, world!");

If it had some variety of building blocks (like int or char), it's like this:

say("Hello, [(string) answer]!");

I mean, it is confusing, but well, it really is. Basically a mix of Python and C with new syntax. Look at it! It's kind of strange but that's my intention.

Take is completely different than the other programming languages. It takes 3 arguments: the building block, name of building block, and if needed - printf.

For example:

take(string, answer, "Name: ");

Well, the combining of different languages could be hard, especially with syntax, expressions, arguments, and the error fixing. Supercode is just meant to be an experiment.

But thanks for the help, @coffeeunderrun!

Answer 4

NND Songs & Medleys this is kinda sorta what you mean I think but calling it as a Supercode

But your saying if I get you correctly integration of all 3 into one actual language.
