:Hi, from your descrition above, it seems that language idioms will be lost. How would an OO language and a functional language be usefully compared for example? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 21:19, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 
:Progsbase is yet another computer language. It claims that "...the progsbase tooling can write the program out to one of the supported languages, which include all programming languages with a few exceptions, but these exceptions account for less that 1% of written programs". The 'all programming languages' is hype. It supports 9 languages (not including the most important F#). The last time I looked RC has 823 languages, so 9 is hardly all. It doesn't include COBOL, Ruby or F#, there is no evidence offered 'that the exceptions account for less than 1% of written programs', but with just these 3 exceptions I find it difficult to accept. It doesn't support Objected Oriented features, but most tasks on RC don't require OO. So someone could add Progsbase to RC as the 823rd. + 1 language and write many of the tasks in it, and as a bonus then have Progsbase tooling write it in 9 other languages.--[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 09:44, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
