Re: [ilugd] Can we code in Hindi ??
Hi, Are we talking about something like this? http://vidagdha.wordpress.com/2008/08/24/programming_in_marathi/ IIRC, one of my friend Somesh (http://guruvision.in) had written complete C programming (I think using turbo C interface) way back in 2001. Check out the news coverage on this page: http://blog.guruvision.in/?page_id=6 I will have to find out if he still has that stuff online somewhere.

Sudhanwa wrote: Are we talking about something like this? http://vidagdha.wordpress.com/2008/08/24/programming_in_marathi/ That looks interesting. I had earlier heard of Marathi BASIC http://www.winsite.com/bin/Info?1700037039 However, Hindawi is not really just one programming language. We define it as complete in a very programming language sense; i.e. it is completely bootstrappable, or can be written in Hindawi set of languages itself. Hindawi provides assembly, C, lex and yacc. This combination can be used to implement any other programming language. Ref http://www.hindawi.in/en_US/faq.php There are many other factors already mentioned in my mail earlier today Mother tongue based programming languages, please also read that, if you have already not done so. For instance one interesting component of Hindawi is a FOSS replacement of the GIST card, that is completely software based and does not use graphics mode to simulate text mode for Indic scripts. IIRC, one of my friend Somesh (http://guruvision.in) had written complete C programming (I think using turbo C interface) way back in 2001. ... http://blog.guruvision.in/?page_id=6 Again this is very interesting. Please do provide us with more information about this. The Sakaal article is not very detailed. I am interested in knowing what were the results like what all was localised - comments only, or also keywords; could variable names be used in Marathi; if yes then were there any restrictions; what about namespace pollution; could the Marathi C be translated back into traditional C (I assume yes); what was the level of compatibility with exisiting set of libraries? One very important question, that you have yourself mentioned is what is its current state? It will be great if you can convey my questions to Somesh. I believe there will be many others on this list interested in these answers, else I would have preferred to take it offline.

[ilugd] Can we code in Hindi ??
Sorry for this post, but I do not want to hurt and hindi-wali feelings inside your soft heart. Just saw this website -- http://www.hindawi.in/en_US/ run the flash intro and see the code snippet in Hindi. Coding structure in Hindi gave a big laugh on my face. I was unable to control myself. I have not downloaded the software But one natural question arise in mind,, *Can we code in Hindi???* My answer is NO, and even if we able to code then also it will be of NO use. I do not know , why somebody will run these type of software. Coding in Hindi will be really tuff (at least for me) and more over the worst part may happen on one day when the moronic idealistic and policy maker may introduce computer education of Hindi Coding at junior classes level. Writing English, speaking English and typing C++ code (which has some English keywords) is totally different. Even Kanitkar has some books in Hinglish. hindi bhashi can read them also. As a programmer I know, changing platform and language is not easy. It takes time . But If I have to shift from English keywords to Hindi keywords it will be really tuff and impossible task. A Hindawi-programmer will also feel same problem while shifting to actual language. Even this project is getting FOSS awards also. ? In my view it is not a useful effort and will not make any sense. It may be used as a proof of concept which tell that you can make equivalent Hindi or lets say Telugu keywords for any computer language like C++ or XML. They are just using gcc backend. my single question is when will be become free from cage of ideology? Let me give a very good example -- I have attended 1-2 classes of a course at IITD, the lecturer was a famous artist, He was digitizing some art-work of a village, he was having some illiterate artists --village females . After a small training, those female were having good command in photoshop, and those females made their own terminologies to talk and explain each other for photoshop. In my View Language is not barrier in case of software and software languages. All we (Indians) need is a good training. FOSS activities should be concentrate on content and its quality, rather then such proof of concept projects. Let me very specific to the question Do we really need localization at software and software languages, taking into consideration of Indian progress and total number of common english users. Localization of some software may make sense in some sense but how come it make sense for software language Please do not take it on heart.

Narendra, Actually you are asking the wrong question. It should have been Can *someone* code in Hindi? (replacing we by someone) You already know a language and so you can't think of programming it somehow else (Isn't that something we already know? Windows ppl don't want to switch to linux because they already know how to work in windows?) But, what if you were to give this to a person who never studied english? I don't have a single piece of doubt that one can code in hindi. After all, its just keywords right, as you accepted? Don't hindi medium schools teach maths in Hindi? As you yourself said, coding is a universal language, someone here is just replacing the keywords. If a 5th class guy can write maan lo instead of let in his maths problem, then what is stopping him to use similar equivalents of all keywords? No one is reinventing/copying the wheel here, what they are trying is that it is easier for a cycle owner to get a cycle tyre so that he doesn't have to necessarily fit in a motorbike's in there.. -Shantz ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

English is the language of a few, he has already given figures. I, being from literature side, have seen the the concerns of Enlish speaking people are quite different from those of Indian languages. Its unfortunate that we have to settle with English as we have almost killed Sanskrit. But the Hindi we use today is not the actual form. The way Hebrew came to life again we should rather work on Sanskrit. Which has strong roots in our glorious past and a lot of valuavle text is available in Sanskrit. Even NASA scientists say that Sanskrit is the best language for computers as well as AI. There is at least one language, Sanskrit, which for the duration of almost 1000 years was a living spoken language with a considerable literature of its own. Besides works of literary value, there was a long philosophical and grammatical tradition that has continued to exist with undiminished vigor until the present century. Among the accomplishments of the grammarians can be reckoned a method for paraphrasing Sanskrit in a manner that is identical not only in essence but in form with current work in Artificial Intelligence. This article demonstrates that a natural language can serve as an artificial language also, and that much work in AI has been reinventing a wheel millenia old. The comparison of the analyses shows that the Sanskrit sentence when rendered into triples matches the analysis arrived at through the application of computer processing. That is surprising, because the form of the Sanskrit sentence is radically different from that of the English. For comparison, the Sanskrit sentence is given here: Maitrah: sauhardyat Devadattaya odanam ghate agnina pacati. http://www.gosai.com/science/sanskrit-nasa.html Swapnil ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

What is the percentage of people in India with 2nd or 3rd language as English ?

Yeah it will be *tuff* for you because u can write and read in English which is easier for you to follow in programming language thus. Writing English, speaking English and typing C++ code (which has some English keywords) is totally different. Even Kanitkar has some books in Hinglish. hindi bhashi can read them also.

In certain contexts your argument may be valid (I myself pointed out abt the need to break away from slave mentality some days back)--- but in this context your logic/argument about slave mindset is not valid. Also, I think what Narendra was originally trying to say is: Promoting code in local language solutions can gloss over the fact that logic is universal-- and can lead to balkanization of programming languages-- because of ideologies and political agendas.

Forgive me if m foolish on this part .. but i think ..coding in hindi can be established as a fact if we design a code converter to any primary hll ..such as C. So every keyword in C would then be replaced by it equivalent in hindi ..n the we go on .. eg would be main : shuruat printf: dikhayen int : ank double : duguna etc.. it can be passed on from a block ...n then its C again ..!

Re: [ilugd] Can we code in Hindi ??
Wow, this thread I have been really entertaining to sit back and watch. But this is growing out to be something which serves no purpose. Here are my few thoughts, though wishing this thread will close soon. The idea of Coding in Native Languages is not new, a lot of people have spoken and may be few even tried one in nook and corners of the world. I even remember a similar topic running in one of the Indian GNU/Linux Mailing List a few years ago. On one side, the idea is so welcomed as the requirement of English knowledge is sometimes felt as a barrier for development as a majority of our population are not that much literate in English. Under such consideration, being able to write code, developer softwares with their own native language is surely a boon. I don't understand, if such a thing is possible, why shouldn't it be welcomed and supported as this can be effectively used to create more desi softwares, solving local problems and requirements, by people who are at the core of the problem or the primary people exposed to it. Scratching ones own itch is better than scratching other's itch. If such a system is possible and being developed, what might be of concern is how compatible is it with other systems.

Re: [ilugd] Can we code in Hindi ??
lol, Its not possible, why you forget about documentation ?? will documentation be in English There are books available for say hindi speaking people to learn say japanese. You don't have to learn English first to learn Japanese. You just don't see the books around 'cause you are present in a market where it probably wouldn't sell much.

How about somebody in the future develops a time machine, comes back and teaches me how to make a time machine?

When will you guys will agree that a computer language is having its own syntax. saying pyton in hindi is same as saying Newton's law in Hindi And because Newton's law was translated in Hindi, we now have a wider people with elementary education. Or do you mean to imply that people who know how things work (without knowing English) do not understand the principles/cannot apply them/or cannot compete for a job with you? like in C++ , if we need to define variable then it will be *int i ;* and in Hindawi it will *purnank aai ;* How does it matter, by a *technical point of view * you are just rebuilding the keywords to make life complex. You are renaming the keywords, yes, but to make life simple for those who learn it. Nobody is asking you to learn it. Narendra, you are not the target audience. I think you are missing this point. Your question (whatever that was, I've lost track now) is still valid, I guess, but you should also realize that teaching English first to do coding is not sensible. As mentioned before, this might just be working as a wrapper. That means, that the code is already being converted to english (forget variable names for now, they are trivial in understanding logic) making it accessible it to a wider community. Think of it this way. There are more people who can learn in India to program. They do so in their native language. Wrappers are available to make it available elsewhere. writing a code in computer language need some keywords, with logic, native language is not useful for code writing. On the contrary, for code _WRITING_, native language is the best way to WRITE. Logic is language independent. I will again say, you are diverting new generation to stick/code with local language. I don't think the new generation (around you and me) is being asked to learn programming in local languages. This is meant for people who speak certain languages. If you are talking about adoption of such tools at school level, I think we needn't worry much 'cause I think the fight is still on to remove MS Office from CS course in schools?

narendra sisodiya wrote: lol, Its not possible, why you forget about documentation ?? will documentation be in English Indeed, localizing document is not as hard as localizing a programming language itself.

Nope,,, It is impossible to revert time... Hmm? saying pyton in hindi is same as saying Newton's law in Hindi Of course, an if condition makes sense because you know the word if means something a sorta condition. If we can imply the same in Hindi, then why won't it make sense? How does it matter, by a *technical point of view * you are just rebuilding the keywords to make life complex. Whose life? If you feel complex then nobody is compelling you to use it. It is for people to whom it makes more sense than doing something in a language they learn using their native language. writing a code in computer language need some keywords, with logic, native language is not useful for code writing. What language does computer language use. If your PoV is that they do not use English, then you are learning a programming language in some alien meaningless language. When you can do so, why you thing people wont be able to make use of something in their own native language which they can very much understand without external intervention? If you accept they are in English, then when something can be represented in English why not some other language not be used? IMHO, a programmer can easily understand these facts. I will again say, you are diverting new generation to stick/code with local language. We are indeed programmers and we have understood that programming is merely putting logic into action using a tool called programming language. What's at the bottom most core of all programming language is math, or more precisely logic. When you are good in your logical abilities, you become a good programmer. If a programmer understands this fundamental truth, then he wont run away when he is put into a situation that he has to work with a new programming language that he doesn't know till now. As a closing comment, you can be skeptical or even caustic about Coding in Hindi and we respect your freedom to do. But this doesn't give you any freedom to laugh at some one when he/she makes a genuine attempt to make it reality. If you can help, please do, but at least do not laugh at people who are trying to help. Criticism is welcomed, if it is constructive. Pinch of salt and playing delivs advocate is helpful most times, but that doesn't mean you can undermine something which a whole bunch of people think would be beneficial if exists. end-of-my-thoughts.

This also boosts their confidence levels and brings them to a comfort zone with which they come forward to discuss things in a group discussion, for example, and are more eager to contribute and work along these lines, rather, than being put off on the wrong assumption that they need to speak grammatically correct English to put their words across. But, code written in one language, need to be translated to an intermediate form, that people from other languages can understand and re-use, else, the spirit of FOSS is lost.

For me it is very difficult to understand humor and hidden comments. The way I took your thought in simple englsih is following,, *I think that you just concluded something (on similar lines) to we should promote teaching maths, physics, chemistry in English medium because most of the content available for these subjects is available as good English text book, even the text is available in local language , any how they are going to learn or use English in graduation or post graduation time.* I was not saying exactly this in all schools.
