  • Patent number: 10073680
    Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a more generally applicable programming environment for visual programming languages than conventional programming environments and to reduce data size of programs. With programming language data (a text VPL), which is a text based programming language data combining functions and connection characters composed of character data and defines relationships between the functions based on positional relations of the functions with reference to the connection characters in a display space of a text editor, the functions and the connection characters in character strings of the programming language data are distinguished and relationships between the functions are interpreted based on the positional relations in the display space. Interpretation of the text VPL enables a computer device to perform processing according to the text VPL, consequently realizing a generally applicable programming environment and reducing program data size.
