Computer "languages" aren't like human languages, so they don't have

Victor Yngve, who was an AI pioneer in the 1950s, designed a computer
language called COMIT II (I suppose there was a COMIT I at some point)
that operates sort of like an early Chomskyan transformational
grammar. Is that what you're looking for?
I'm more interested in how linguists think about computer programming.
I don't think they do. The corpus linguists write their programs,
using whatever "language" they've learned. It's up to the engineers to
invent the "languages."
