Chapter 26: Computer Language Creation and Application
Chapter 26: Computer Language Creation and Application
In the rented apartment, Chen Mo put down the book in his hand and lay back on the bed.
In order to complete the mobile phone motherboard circuit, he had read very little recently. Instead, he had been dismantling old phone motherboards to gain a better understanding of them, as it was a hands-on field.
After several days of effort, the mobile phone motherboard design was finished.
He chose not to manufacture the mobile phone motherboard himself. Making it by hand would require a lot of energy.
Etching the circuit board, drilling holes, and soldering components were all very troublesome processes. If he made a mistake and ruined it, he would have to start over. He decided to leave these specialized tasks to professionals.
After handing over the mobile phone motherboard design and battery size design to Zhao Min, he stopped overseeing the matter. The testing, production, and the launch event for the mobile phone system were all handled by Zhao Min.
With the mobile phone design work completed, he could once again focus on his books.
His life became relaxed again. Sometimes he went out on dates or trips with Xiaoyu. The rest of the time, he read books at the shop.
The goal of 1,000 books was still far away, giving him plenty to strive for. Through his recent efforts, he had now finished his 300th book.
Now, he knew that his rest period was over, and it was time to get busy again.
After lying on the bed, Chen Mo closed his eyes and entered the Science and Technology Library.
The towering hundred-meter-high bookshelves no longer surprised him.
Sometimes when he entered, he wandered through these shelves while chatting with Elder Shu.
Elder Shu told him stories about the development of other civilizations and introduced him to the technologies on the shelves—countless technologies he had never imagined or even dared to imagine.
Here, there was armor similar to Iron Man’s, methods for developing superpowers, designs for super spaceships, and even quantum portals. Every conceivable technology was here. Chen Mo had even seen a technology for a life-extending serum on the shelves.
If he were to take high-permission-level technologies from the Science and Technology Library and turn them into products, the whole world would go crazy.
After looking around the library, Chen Mo walked to the desk and opened the book on it.
The moment he opened the book, Elder Shu’s figure appeared in the Science and Technology Library along with a screen of light.
“Here for a technology?” Elder Shu asked.
“Yes,” Chen Mo nodded.
“You now have two choices: Random Selection and Free Selection. Which one will you use first?” Elder Shu said.
Random Selection was a benefit of the Novice permission, available once every month. The second month had started the day before yesterday, but Chen Mo had been hesitant to use it.
The Random Selection option was cursed. Thinking back to the first random selection, The Production Process of Ultra-Thin Sanitary Pads, he still felt a little traumatized.
Although he later randomly obtained office software, the trauma remained. So, he decided to make his selection only after gaining the Free Selection right, to avoid returning empty-handed. The uncertainty of Random Selection was like buying a lottery ticket—you never knew what technology you would get.
“Let’s start with Random Selection,” Chen Mo said without hesitation.
As soon as he spoke, the air filled with countless books, densely packed like tiles on a wall, making his eyes dizzy.
The books slowly began to spin, and Chen Mo’s heart tightened. He prayed silently for a useful technology, not wanting to waste this opportunity.
After a while, the spinning books stopped, and one turned into a physical book in Elder Shu’s hand.
When Chen Mo saw the cover, he froze.
Human Reproduction Aid Serum Formula??
A serum? A human reproduction aid? What kind of medicine was this? Was this even technology? The name sounded strange.
In an instant, Chen Mo had a bad feeling.
“What is this medicine?” Chen Mo pointed at the book.
“Your luck is very good,” Elder Shu said with a hearty laugh. “This is a great thing.”
“I haven’t even entered the medical field yet. This formula is useless to me for now. Tell me, what is it?” Hearing Elder Shu’s laughter, Chen Mo’s bad feeling grew stronger.
“To put it simply, it’s an aphrodisiac.”
Chen Mo felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His face turned red with frustration. It was exactly what he had feared. Once again, he had obtained an obscure technology. He now felt that Random Selection was a huge trap.
“Your luck is very good,” Elder Shu laughed.
“Good luck? It’s useless for now,” Chen Mo felt like crying but had no tears.
“It is good luck. This one has no side effects.” After saying this, Elder Shu laughed heartily again.
Chen Mo looked as if he had swallowed a cockroach alive. Not only was it useless for now, but it was also so obscure. Even if it were a medical technology, he would have been less frustrated if it were something like a flu treatment.
“By the look on your face, you don’t want it?” Elder Shu asked.
“I do, of course I do,” Chen Mo said quickly. Even if he couldn’t use it now, it might be useful later. That kind of stuff was extremely expensive, and one without side effects was like pure silver.
Elder Shu slapped the book into Chen Mo’s mind and laughed heartily. Thinking of Chen Mo’s expression just now, he couldn’t help but laugh. He couldn’t remember the last time he had laughed so freely.
“Why is the Random Selection in the Science and Technology Library so tricky?”
Chen Mo smiled bitterly. He now had a psychological shadow about Random Selection. With countless technologies available, why did he keep getting such obscure ones?
“It’s not tricky; you’re just lucky. You still have one Free Selection right. Do you want to use it?” Elder Shu asked with a smile.
“Yes,” Chen Mo nodded, but thinking about the vast number of books, he felt a bit lost.
“Don’t know which technology to choose?” Elder Shu asked.
“Exactly. There are too many things I want to choose, but considering my current situation, many of these technologies are useless for now. Elder Shu, do you have any suggestions?”
“How about this?”
Elder Shu opened his palm, and a book formed in his hand.
Computer Language Creation and Application
“Is this for creating a programming language?” Chen Mo’s eyes lit up.
“Yes, this teaches you how to create a computer language using your own language,” Elder Shu said.
“I’ll take it.”
Chen Mo never expected the Science and Technology Library to have such a book.
Chinese characters were very clever and profound. In terms of logical expression, they were much more flexible and ingenious than English.
Whether it was ancient classical Chinese, poetry, or modern internet jokes, they all carried the unique charm of Chinese expression.
But unfortunately, despite the long development of computers, there was no computer language based on Chinese characters. If he could create a Chinese character programming language, it would be absolutely groundbreaking.
After learning about this book, Chen Mo did not hesitate to choose it.
Receiving Chen Mo’s confirmation, Elder Shu nodded. “Study it well. What belongs to you is your true strength. The Science and Technology Library’s technologies ultimately belong to others. Creation is the fundamental purpose of the Science and Technology Library.”
After Elder Shu slapped the book into Chen Mo’s mind, countless symbols and words flashed through his thoughts. After obtaining Computer Language Creation and Application, a look of delight appeared on Chen Mo’s face. All his frustration from getting the serum formula disappeared.
As long as he could create a Chinese Character Programming Language, nothing else mattered.
After exiting the Science and Technology Library, Chen Mo began to digest the knowledge from Computer Language Creation and Application. After spending two hours carefully understanding the book twice, he eagerly leaned over the desk and began designing the keywords and phrases for the Chinese Character Programming Language.
