Student Programming Language (SPL) compiles and executes programs written in a subset of PL/I. SPL was created by David B. Wortman in 1969 at Stanford University as a teaching tool for beginning programmers. In 1970 the compiler was modified by Robin A. Vowels at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology to be more compatible with the PL/I language. The compiler is written in XPL using an MSP parser. XPL is described in the book "A Compiler Generator" by McKeeman, Horning and Wortman.

KAREL 3D written in JavaScript with WebGL is a children's programming language for teaching algorithms. This is later variant from Karel the Robot in 3D, created in 1986 for 8bit microcomputer PMD 85-2. Support full recursion, create new commands, complex commands with condition from dialog and direct control with keys, language translation. Objects: brick, wall, mark, fence. Check out the Wiki (here) for more examples and pictures. Include ZIP with original historical...

MiniBasic is a small but usable Basic interpreter. It is written in pure ANSI C, so it should be easy to get up and running in almost any environment. It has been used for PIC32 electronics projects, as an embedded scripting language, and as a teaching aid. There's an associated book, and full documentation and sample programs online (go to the project's web pages). It's designed to be easy to modify, to use the code as the basis for your own interpreter.

This is an interpreted programming language that is designed to teach young children the fundamentals of programming, hiding away from students the complex concepts of programming, such as parentheses, quotes, data types, arrays, while allowing them to understand the basic concepts of programming, and, move to a more advanced language. It also serves as an exapmle on how to create an interpreter with QBASIC. The interpreter is written in QBASIC, and is licensed under the GNU...

This is a project to develop tools for the MOUSE programming language and to encourage its use as an experimental and teaching language.
