I had heard that a research has shown that Sanskrit is the best language for computer programming
No. That is quite incorrect, and a huge source of confusion created due to the fact that Sanskrit experts know little about data structures and computer language structures, and computer scientists know little about Sanskrit, about grammar or about Panini.
Sanskrit per se is a language which is grammatically unnaturally clear, compared to other languages of that antiquity. The reason for this is that it was rigorously analyzed and its rules set down methodically by a genius known as Panini. His method of imparting information about grammatical rules included using data structures and recursion; this was several centuries before Christ!
If you know about data structures, if you know any block structured language from C onwards, you might be able to follow this on your own. Please say if you are ok with data structures and with languages that are relevant, and if you want to follow up the subject.
pray tell where you heard that.
Also it's a dead language, how does a dead language become the "best language for computer programming" ?
I would say that it would probably be one of the worst since there are no native speakers and few people who actually know it enough to program in it.
Read my comment above, in response to UDAY CAMPUS.
Who says Sanskrit is Dead language? Even U use it every day life..... Need stuff understand that. Btw when he said Computer programming that doesnt mean using the literal language....
Not only the Indians speak it every day but the whole world speaks it...
Matrah---Mother
Bratrah---Brother
Navig----Navigation
etc
Those who think otherwise well cant help them.

Loyalty is fine, misplaced loyalty can be lethal. Please read my post above, a response to UDAY CAMPUS, for a sketchy outline.
Expectedly the proud Tamil disagrees on that..
Quite correctly, as it happens.
What he was saying was correct Sanskrit by far its the most advance language ever know to mankind.
Every word in Sanskrit is self explanatory n its grammer principles r also perfectly well defined n work on every word or sentence.
This is the reason that it could be used easily for computer programing but has limited applicability as programing language as its not spoken by much people now
Here r some links for my n his claim

N for ur kind information Sanskrit is still used by natives of atleast 4-5 villages in India where thousands of people still use it in their day to day life as means of communication
For more info about those villages go read my post no.32 on this thread u idiot
You are positively dangerous.
Your first and third references more or less describe the befuddlement of western people confronted by linguistics bravos and fanboys, and I suspect you have not even read your second reference. It ridicules positions like yours.
Whether people from .4 or 5 villages still speak it or not is irrelevant. It is still a dead language.
Its identity crisis for some to show brazen illogical hatred for anything slightly related to Hinduism, to justify their existence
Soon, he"ll say that Sanskrit was brought by Aryan invaders and imposed on Sub continent, which i have debunked several times.
May we disagree on this one? In the most friendly way, of course.
Come on now...
Tibeto language is Sanskrit. Sanskrit is not a Aryan language.. lab lab la......
I am tired of your BS. And there is not a single thread where I dont bump into you...
This is the only thing we have in common.
