A very simple interpreted programming language for beginners.

Code in Action

# import the math module
fetch std_math;

obj x = 0;

# let's go for a walk!
walk i = 0 through 10 {
    obj x = x + 1;

    if x == 5 {
        leave;
    }
}

# print the value of 'x'
serve(x);

# greet someone
func greet(name) {
    serve("Hello, " + name + "!");
}

greet("my Maid");

serve("Pi is equal to: " + tostring(math_pi));
serve("We have reached the end of our program. I hope you enjoyed!");

# import the math module
fetch std_math; # imports
serve(math_pi); # built in functions
obj x = 0; # object creation

# looping
walk i = 0 through 10 {
    serve("'i' is equal to: " + tostring(i));

    if i == 5 {
        leave;
    }
}

while 1 == 1 {
    serve("Inside a while loop");

    leave;
}

# function definitions
func greet(name) {
    serve("Hello my " + name + "!");

    give null;
}

greet("Maid");
