==Disadvantages== A programming language may be difficult for new users to learn because of a (possibly long) list of reserved words to memorize which can't be used as identifiers. It may be difficult to extend the language because addition of reserved words for new features might invalidate existing programs or, conversely, "overloading" of existing reserved words with new meanings can be confusing. Porting programs can be problematic because a word not reserved by one system or compiler might be reserved by another.
