What do you guys think about this syntax I came up with?
Right now its in the works for a language me (@eekboi), @sugarfi, @rohilpatel, and a few others i unfortunately forgot. AMA!
The structure doesn't feel stable enough. You have commands like create and encrypt but at the same time have tags-like tokens, such as </movement"...">. Also, you have a createweb command, which IMO is wayyyy too specific for it to be its own entity.
@SixBeeps will take as a note, movement is a variable that i made sure to put in. As for create webserver its a command that runs on the create command, its not its own entity command. for working in the future on this i will take note Thanks!
there is an error.But good try
@bob098 its not me programming it, its an example.
There's an error.
@TurtleAndrew its a syntax thats not being coded in. its an example not an official "thing"
Wait how do you create your own launguage?
@Zexogon You have to come up with a syntax for it, write a lexer/tokenizer and a compiler. its pretty complicated. if yo want to see some example docs from my project with @sugarfi @rohilpatel @darknew and more ill inv u
@eekboi i m g o o d
@Zexogon you can either write your own lexer and parser like eekboi said, or you can use a library. Then you have an AST, or Abstract Syntax Tree, representing your program. Then, you either run that directly (interpreted) or convert it to an executable (compiled).
seems a bit difficult to parse, especially line 23
@Andi_Chin true true. heres a little bicture i made to explain what it all meant (especially line 23) try to view it in its own web thing so the codes bigger :)
There is a error.
@RohilPatel i know. its not meant to be ran. It's a syntax that hasnt been released yet.
To me, it just looks like you've thrown together words related to the thing you're doing. I can't see any consistent structure or logic behind it.
As an example of some of the inconsistencies, your sample code contains:
@pyelias you know, I'm not that good with most languages of code, but you do have a good point. None of that has much constancy or much logic. seems like random words made up to be somewhat functioning.
@pyelias </bin>
is this or "Binary standard" the part that tells it to encode as binary?` its telling you to encode it in binary.
also most of the stuff you mentioned are typos i will fix. thanks for notifying me about it.
</Output:/>
where does the :/ come from?
typo
</read Input>>>
why 3 >s? typo
</read Input>>>
why 3 >s? typo and typo no its not a comment the slash is a typo
for most of this ive updated it.
</web?URL/display ...
what does ? do?
and why is there no closing > ? the ? is updated to a . and the other thing was a typo.
"https://{input}.<"com", "net", "web", "org">"
is this just an entirely different usage of <> ?
the<> can be used in different ways most predominately used here is to encapture the different options/choices.
</action"click">
as far as i can tell this is some kind of function
but the Say function (is Say a function?) works completely differently
this is a way to make the click a function available to detect.
say is print in python.
<action>
missing the / again?
i was on low sleep man, ok? lol typo
</Create"movements">
why are these only sometimes capitalized?
(that's not technically syntax, but still)
since my syntax isnt case sensitive i used it as a marker incase i make a typo to easily skim thru my code and see it in there to edit it
<"NORTH", "EAST", ...>
is this the same as <"com", "net", "web", "org">?
and why are they lowercase later?
yes thats the same as the other thing you mentioned. same thing with the thing above for the capitilization
</action>
it didn't have / before
im pretty sure i didi but you could be right. thanks for asking and actually caaring!
