The ebda3 programming language (Arabic: إبداع) is an object-oriented, imperative, multi-paradigm programming language created by Waeel Hassan (Abou Iyas) and released in November 2012.^[1] Ebda3 is still in its early stages and albeit originally planned to be a compiled language, the current version of the compiler obde3 functions only as an interpreter under the Java Virtual Machine.^[2] It originated as a multipurpose, educational distinct language while taking inspiration from other languages like C#, Java, Matlab, C++ among others.^[3] Ebda3's design goals attempt to combine simplicity, robustness and safety with the goal of filling the gap of programming languages in the Arabic-speaking world.^[4]

Syntax and Semantics^[3]

Indentation

Ebda3 uses whitespace indentation, rather than curly braces or keywords, to delimit blocks; this feature is also termed the off-side rule. An increase in indentation comes after certain statements; a decrease in indentation signifies the end of the current block.

Statements and control flow

Some examples for ebda3 statements:

• The لو statement, which conditionally executes a block of code, along with أما لو and غيره.
• The بينما statement, which executes a block of code as long as its condition is true.
• The بينما في statement, which iterates over an iterable object, capturing each element to a local variable for use by the attached block.
• The أحاول statement, which allows exceptions raised in its attached code block to be caught and handled by معالجة clauses; it also ensures that clean-up code in a دوماً block will always be run regardless of how the block exits.
• The صنف statement, which executes a block of code and attaches its local namespace to a class, for use in object-oriented programming.
• The إجراء statement, which defines a function or method.
• The أضم statement, which is used to import modules whose functions or variables can be used in the current program.
