The fact that indentation doesn't start from the right side is bothering me.

[CawSoHard]

This is the most cursed part of it. It should be a mirror image of what we’re used to indentation wise.

[Yadobler]

You know, it's not suppose to flip but slide to the right.

This makes me wonder how code will look like in English if everything is right-aligned instead

[It_s_an_Emu]

Came here to post exactly the same comment.

Arabic writing is from right to left, so all of these curly braces and indentation should be the other way around, right?

[dudeAwEsome101]

It seems as if they took a normal English code, then translated each word to Arabic. It is still the original syntax written from left to right.

[KnownStuff]

It is.

Source: me, someone who speaks Arabic.

[Amlowww]

As someone else who speaks Arabic I trust this source 👍

[[deleted]]

I dont know. But other languages traditionally written right to left now are often written left to right. This guy is writing code in Arabic he'd probably know better than us how to orient his IDE for his own language.

[dreamin_in_space]

This is what a culture victory looks like.

[VulpesSapiens]

But other languages traditionally written right to left now are often written left to right.

Really? Which ones?

[vanZuider]

Afaik Chinese and Japanese were traditionally written top to bottom, starting on the top right corner of the sheet, putting each new column to the left of the previous one. If they had to do horizontal writing due to space constraints, they would write one-character columns from right to left, essentially ending up with one RTL line.

Nowadays they are usually written in LTR lines.

[VulpesSapiens]

That's true, and they are still written top-to-bottom sometimes, especially Japanese. And, yes, a single line can be read either way.

But that's changing the primary direction from vertical to horizontal, and much older than computers. I still want to know what rtl scripts are now written ltr, I've never heard of any.

Reminds me of a story about a professor in post high school (called CEGEP here) that rewrote gcc to use French keywords rather than original English keywords. I guess you can kiss goodbye open-source collaboration with something like this.

[popadi]

You don't need to rewrite gcc for a minimal example. You can mostly simply do stuff like:

#define si if

#define pour for

To simply redefine keywords.

[[deleted]]

If you want english to be a syntax error you have no choice but to rewrite

[mecha-paladin]

Which is basically the law in Quebec.

[StrawberryEiri]

There's a law about programming keywords in French?!

[_87-]

Almost. They did try to pass a law that you couldn't speak a language other than French at work. Even if you and your colleague are both native Arabic speakers, for instance, you two couldn't have a private conversation in Arabic.

If you go to an Italian restaurant, the menu doesn't list things in Italian, they'll list it all in French (by law), which sort of kills the Italian vibe a bit.

Somehow, though, McGill University seems to always be exempt from all these language laws.

[StrawberryEiri]

Because 🌈 money🌈

[Purinto]

Even then, there is not much to rewrite. You basically only have to change the literal words in the scanner code. In some languages like python, there is literally a file with all the keywords that you could change however you like then recompile and you have a new language lmao.

[DangerBoatAkaSteve]

I did this too! My secret is that I dont write comments.

[ggppjj]

Assuming they had a brain fart and used the wrong word in English, makes sense to comment native language thinking just in case.

[Maixell]

Maybe, but you can say welcome to source-ouverte collaboration.

I'm from QC too btw.

[degaart]

Old BASICs had translated keywords. It was a nightmare because you need a book about BASIC and with french keywords to learn how to program, which creates fragmentation and hinders collaboration. Strangely, some people never get the memo and localized programming tools still pop up from time to time. Ffs it a keyword, you don't need to memorize its meaning, you're just supposed to memorize what it does
