Wolfram Alpha is perhaps the most advanced search engine available to the public, providing results from the simplest searches to solutions to complex mathematical equations. Now, its creator (Stephen Wolfram) has announced that he will integrate it into the new programming language he is preparing, which will be the most important thing he has ever created and may revolutionize the field of Computer Science.
The Wolfram Language will also incorporate all the elements of the well-known Mathematica, but the main goal is that it can be easily used by everyone to create various applications and solutions, without the need for special programming knowledge, since it will be able to understand commands in natural language!
Unlike powerful programming languages (such as C++, PHP, and Java), the Wolfram Language will integrate as many functions as possible into its core and will not rely so heavily on external libraries, while it will be accessible to everyone via the cloud (although there will also be a desktop version).
“We want to bring the Wolfram Language to as many people as possible. It's a great first programming language for anyone”
It should be added that soon (he did not specify how soon) Mathematica Online will also be available, which we will be able to use like regular software from the web browser.
So, another step towards promoting Programming around the world, and with serious efforts to make it understandable-accessible-friendly to everyone, at a time when some luminaries in some countries are abolishing the subject from schools..
