[NBLUG/talk] Research For A New Language.

Hello, everyone:

I'm new to this forum and apologize if my questions seem naive. I will do my
best to investigate on my own. I do have a question, if anyone is willing to
answer it I would appreciate it.

Regarding programming languages, it seems that the present ones are based,
at best, on assembly language, if even that close to the computer language
of 1s and 0s.

I'm curious to know if it would be beneficial if in the future there were a
substantial investment made (perhaps several million dollars or even much
more) and lasting several years, for a large team of software engineers to
develop a new, super language starting from scratch with the 1s and 0s? This
language of course would be infinitely superior to Java, C++ or anything
else available today. A project of this magnitude might require a
cooperation between the government and the private sector.

Any takers?

Thanks, Edward
