is there a list of acomputer languagesn(dead or alive) and spoken languages (dead or alive)? Would like to see at what time computer languages are likely to outnumber spoken language.
- zabzonk 6y agoUnsurprisingly, Wikipedia has both.
- rvense 6y agoThe highest estimate for number of natural languages I've seen is about 7,000 living. But I think you'd have to have a very, very restrictive definition of programming language for it to be lower than that.
- endergen 6y agoDefinitely depends on the definition, it seems every programmer and their mother has some toy programming language they poke at.
- mhd 6y agoMost of which would probably more qualify as dialects in natural language terms. We're all mostly speaking broken Algol with some fancy loan words and maybe a slight lisp.
