New Programming Language
TO DO
If you have chosen to do a new programming language as your culminating activity, there are a few key things to remember:
· You must do the work in class and you must show Mr. Campeau your progress as you work through the language.
· You must get your idea approved before starting.
· You must show about 10 programs that you have written. The programs must be yours!
· You will have to write a small in-class performance task to show that you have mastered the basics of the language.
TO SUBMIT
· You must submit your source code for your programs.
· You must submit a written document with the following sections (and more):
o Title Page
o Setup Requirements- Explaining what software is needed and how to set it up (if it isn’t obvious)
o Variables – Simply discuss basic variables
o If statements – Show the structure and give examples
o Loops – Show different loops and give examples
o Functions – Show how to implement and call functions
o Arrays – Show how to create and manipulate arrays
o Graphics – Show a simple graphical application

Of course, you will get more marks if you provide extra details such as:
· How to implement OOP
· How the language is utilized in the world
· How it compares to other languages
· Anything else that might be useful to know
