US 2023/0418570 A1 · CONSTRUCTING EXECUTABLE PROGRAM CODE BASED ON SEQUENCE CODES

Abstract

Methods described herein generate executable program code based on sequence codes, such that the executable program code is executable by a computer processor. According to such a method, a command is received to generate executable program code. Via a code-building interface, user input is received indicating an operation to be performed by the executable program code, a data type for to the executable program code, and a condition for applying the executable program code. A sequence code is constructed to represent the user input, where the sequence code includes a sequence of character sets. From the sequence code, a first character set corresponding to the operation, a second character set corresponding to the data type, and a third character set corresponding to the condition are extracted. Mapping data is applied to the first character set, the second character set, and the third character set to generate the executable program code.

A method comprising:

receiving a command to generate executable program code;
configuring a user device to present a code-building interface enabling entry of operations, data types, and conditions for the executable program code;
receiving, via the code-building interface, user input indicating an operation to be performed by the executable program code, a data type for to the executable program code, and a condition for application of the executable program code;

A method comprising:

receiving, by a software development platform, a command to generate executable program code;
configuring, by a sequence-building tool of the software development platform, a user device to present a code-building interface comprising an operation-selection menu for selecting one or more operations to be performed by the executable program code, a type-selection menu for selecting one or more data types, and a condition menu for selecting one or more conditions for the executable program code;
receiving user selections via the operation-selection menu, the type-selection menu, and the condition menu;
building, by the sequence-building tool of the software development platform, a sequence code representing the user selections;
