What did you dislike about Fahrenheit? I'm planning on eventually reading it too, as it's one of the first foreign classics that I can remember hearing about.

@hosma I feel it is extremely overrated. If you are expecting a dystopian sort of 1984 book you are going to be extremely disappointed. Without spoiling anything all I can say is that is was just sort of cheesey. Felt like a rant of an old person complaining about the modern generation with a subplot about burning books (the whole book burning thing is not explored deeply at all)

@hosma if you are looking to read American authors I would suggest authors like John Williams, Steinbeck, Hemmingway, etc. Stoner by John Williams is a top 10 book for me so I'd definitely recommend that one. Would not recommend anything by Ray Bradbury though....

Very nice, I think I should learn how to create a language next year when I study the compiler subject, but I don't think it is very useful to create a language anyway, have you talked about this thing before?

I mean it's just for fun lol, I like programming. I also wanted to design my own scripting language, because I am not a fan of most scripting language's design choices.

It is going to be procedural. Soon I will add user defined types and garbage collection. I may also look into calling C code from the language, so then I could make bindings for something like raylib so that I could make a graphical game in my own language :)
