'''Universal programming language'''

In [[Computer science]] and [[Computer programming]], the '''Universal programming language''' refers to an hypotetical or real programming language having the most features of diverse programming languages such as [[Homoiconicity]], diversity or [[Programming paradigm]], notations, syntaxes, etc. and runnable by compuetrs regardsregardless of their architecture.

On its simpest definition, an universal programming language should be able to host and run programs expressed as [[Algorithm|algorithms]], given that these are bound to neither a particular programming language nor computer architecture.

== Features ==

Even when it seems clear ...the simplistic idea of an universal programming language as a programming language most people 'agree' to use, it is not clear the set of features an universal programming language should have

[[Homoiconicity]]

It should solve the [[Expression problem]]

Dynamic

Atemporality

It must not be understood as 'permanent' or 'unchanged', but it can change and evolve in order to suppont new paradigms and features to come.

Clearity

Simplicity

[[Orthogonality (programming)|Ortogonality]]

== Uses ==

Surprisingly, given the features provided by an universal programming language, they can be used to several purposes, rather than merely running a program
