Suravi, even comes with batteries included. 
I'm not sure how many cookies it makes to be happy, but so far it's not 27.

If I were you, I'd wait until I became a professor:
- Invent a new language (or modify an existing one)
- call it after yourself
- Have your minions (aka the graduate students) write the VM for it
- Profit!

Or after your girlfriend.
This "Mary" language developed around 1980 at my university was named after the chief designer's girlfriend. "Hello world" was not yet an established meme then, so the equivalent program wrote to the console, "Mary has been executed"

A Bloody Mary, indeed

I would say that the value of 'programming language' hit a really low point...

So, you've to pass through a compiler, and get converted to an executable.
Or is it an interpreter you'll have to pass through?

I dunno... I barely pass as a software engineer.
