Programming Language

[Screed]

Would it be possible to create my own Programming language with C++ like this:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{ 
typedef cout print;
typedef int num;
...

and so on?

That wouldn't be a new programming language. That would be you obfuscating C++ so it is harder to read.

And you wouldn't use typedef for things like variables such as std::cout; you would have to use #define's. You can only use typedef for types.

Oh okay thank you

I cant seem to change cout :/

[webJose]

How are you trying to change it?

He is obviously confused in thinking that cout is a type (which it isn't) - it is an object of type ostream

[Screed]

I tried #define cout and then put a new name

[webJose]

#define's are the other way around than typedef's.

#define MYNEWCOUT std::cout

Take note of how I included the std:: namespace part. It is best to do it like this.
