31 days for me I think (not counting days off and weekends)

BasiC++ has officially been renamed to ATI-BASIC

hmm still pretty close, I will lock it later today and just pick one I like if it is still tied I guess

Maybe B-- ?

You know, B for BASIC, and a negative times a negative is a positive, so...

the problem with this name that I see is its similarity to B and C--
this may cause just as much confusion as the current name imo

Well, look at other programming language's names:
C
D
Haskell
Python
C++
C#
Well, they mean nothing!

So, I recommend having Ephan. It's just a random name

C# name was chossen as follows (according to wikipedia): The name "C sharp" was inspired by musical notation where a sharp indicates that the written note should be made a semitone higher in pitch.[8] This is similar to the language name of C++, where "++" indicates that a variable should be incremented by 1.

C# is a decendant of C++ and the name both indicates so musically and visually (a sharp looks like a two stacked ++s)

C++ also has reasoning to its name.
Etymology

According to Stroustrup: "the name signifies the evolutionary nature of the changes from C".[9] During C++'s development period, the language had been referred to as "new C", then "C with Classes". The final name is credited to Rick Mascitti (mid-1983) and was first used in December 1983. When Mascitti was questioned informally in 1992 about the naming, he indicated that it was given in a tongue-in-cheek spirit. It stems from C's "++" operator (which increments the value of a variable) and a common naming convention of using "+" to indicate an enhanced computer program. There is no language called "C plus". ABCL/c+ was the name of an earlier, unrelated programming language.

D follows the same naming convention of C in the sense that C was a descendant of the B programming language

but that leads one to wonder where the name B came from?
well it turns out B was a descendant of BCPL which was a descendant of CPL
BCPL stands for Basic Combined Programming Language
and I would guess that the name B was taken from the B in BCPL as B was very closely related to it.

so believe it or not, most of those do have reasoning behind the names

I have no idea about Haskell and Python though, I am sure there are reasons though (probably on wikipedia but I dont feel like checking atm)

edit: Haskell is named after logician Haskell Curry

Tea Eye Basicomp

alright, now that christmas is past I will be working on this again, however...
I think its time that this project is renamed, because the name implies that it is a combination of basic and c++ which of course is not true at all.
BUT I can't come up with a good name, you guys should help! preferably something with BASIC/Basic in the name, something short, and something that implies that it is like ti-basic except loaded with more awesomes and for pc. I might hold a poll for voting if you guys can come up with multiple good ones

"BasiC++ will be an interpreted programming language for the PC based directly off of Ti-Basic"

eye candy has arrived! I am not sure if I mentioned, but I started over from scratch. it no longer has a window for the time being, and I did not start with variables. Instead I have been working on a preprocessor. this will run through the code translating it into something easier to parse, this new code is stored in a temporary file. when the preprocessor is finished, the interpreter will take over and begin interpreting the code line by line. So far I have the preprocessor remove whitespace (except for newlines) and make all text be in caps. also it will leave a string intact and it is not required to have the closing " for it to read it as a string, just like in ti-basic.

and now the eye candy:
