Hillhacks

Programming in Hindi and other regional language.

A Talk by Ratnadeep, at Main Conference

Abstract

This is the project that lets people type in Hindi, Marathi or any other languages to do programming. This helps people without knowledge of English to learn programming.

Main Description

Here is the sample program -

 १०.बार करो
   छापो " मेरे करण अर्जुन जरूर आयेंगे! "
 समाप्त

The above code will run loop and print the dialog “ मेरे करण अर्जुन जरूर आयेंगे! ” 10 times.

Imagine writing all you programmes the way above code is written, that is in Hindi. This same project can be easily extended to support any other spoken language as well.

This is really helpful to people who don't understand English, but I feel it's equally great for people who already programme in English. It's great fun exercise to try writing programmes in mother-tongue which gives different perspective and new understanding to programming.
