Brainf**k Compiler Written in COBOL that Compiles to COBOL?

[@betadv]

Now make a Compiler in Brainf**k to compile Cobol into Brainf**k

[@KoltPenny]

For next Christmas you should make a COBOL interpreter in BF.

[@bujitself]

As NDC guy said, "There were no bad ideas"

[@cmyk8964]

COBOL starts arrays like 1, like Lua and Scratch, which both kinda suck.

[@1TW1-m5i]

Idk about lua, but perhaps it's because all of them are trying to be for people not already used to coding.

[@dimsword35]

Scratch isnt Bad, i even tried to make a Programming Linguge on it, but its Gettin Complicated

[@cheesepop7175]

Lua does not suck, you're just not using it correctly. Scratch was not designed for serious programming, it's just a tool to teach kids about coding, no wonder it sucks.

Rare to see that some people are interested in esoteric programming languages. Some of the esoteric programming language out there can spawn very interesting concepts that could be useful for some real programming language. Great video. I really enjoy your Ascii Dots presentation. that esolang has interesting structure.

[@MrLetsGamePlayHD]

Actually, the design choice for using one based index is because cobol should be easy to learn and I saw many people in school failing to grasp index 0 (maybe my teacher should call it an offset, which makes things a bit easier). Also, math does start arrays at one and so it is really a good choice. Fortran has also one based index (which makes sense, based on that is called FORmular TRANslator). But in fortran you can create arrays with the first index being 0, 1, -5 or any other number xD like: INTEGER :: arr1(5) ! Array from 1 to 5, 5 Items INTEGER :: arr2(1:5) ! Array from 1 to 5, 5 Items INTEGER :: arr3(0:4) ! Array from 0 to 4, 5 Items INTEGER :: arr3(-5:0) ! Array from -5 to 0, 5 Items Math index notation: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_notation#One-dimensional_arrays_(vectors)

EDIT: I've already got the ascii values now, you don't need to look anymore. asking due to trying to make a brainf**k interpreter in scratch, but what are all the ascii values of? thought i could easily make it up as i went, but i don't know the ascii values of everything, so what are they?

You don’t need to add periods after all non-nested statements in the procedure division, only at the end of each paragraph.

Why im i Seeing the "Annotations" Switch on this Video?

[@jesusvargas2580]

Why didn't you use GNUCobol? You can compile it under any linux distrubution but too under windows with Cygwin. In both ways you only need 2 libraries, the libdb4.8 or libdb5.3 (for Databases), and the GMP (Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library), and they can be instaled easy form their respective package manager. 😉 Even that could be another way for testing if the second version of the hello world can be compiled succesfully.

[@Truttle1]

I did use GnuCOBOL, but through the OpenCOBOLIDE.

[@jesusvargas2580]

​@@Truttle1 strange... I've never seen an 60 seconds error, but my GnuCobol was compiled using Clang as C compiler and the libraries I mention, I use it directly from the Linux Shell (I use Debian 10) and just in case, I use Vim or Subime Text for edit code and the syntax highlight, not neccesary but comfortable. Meanwhile, I don't know if that error could be maybe for the IDE 🤔

[@Truttle1]

@@jesusvargas2580 Oh, you were talking about that error. I was using the website tio.run there, which uses GNUCobol, but times out after 60 seconds.

[@jesusvargas2580]

@@Truttle1 Yeah, I was talking about that error, and of course, my question was over if you tried to compile the program of 8:40 if you use GnuCobol directtly insted using a online compiler 😉

COBOL is meant for data processing and it does what it does very successfully. It may have been specified a long time ago but now has a modern standard, so it's not such an old language. There's a helluva lot of COBOL code still running out there and there will be well into the future. Financial institutions don't want to rewrite these applications as they work and writing something new introduces a whole new set of bugs that have financial repercussions for companies such as loss of revenue for downtime or fines from financial regulators. COBOL isn't really that hard, it's just verbose. It's often used in real-time applications.

[@raskr8137]

If you compile to a language that needs to be compiled again in order to run, wouldn't that actually be a *translator* and not a compiler? By the way, I'm pretty sure the longest "hello, world!" is written in esolang "Unary" and has 2.2497436034233067E+100 characters.
