哮/English version

This is still a work in progress. It may be changed in the future.

This page is written by the language English, and the version of language Simplified Chinese is at 哮.

哮 is created by User:PrySigneToFry and his ChatGPT.

Commands in the language

1. 哮（xiāo）: Create a variable and initialize it with 0.
2. 咕（gū）: Add current variable by 1.
3. 喵（miāo）: Subtract current variable by 1.
4. 吼（hǒu）: Output the value of a variable.
5. 嘭（pēng）: If current variable is 0, jump to the given line.
6. 唧（jī）: Read input and store it into the variable.
7. 嗡（wēng）: Copy current variable to another.
8. 呼（hū）: Swap two variables.
9. 吱（zhī）: Multiply current variable by 2.
10. 咕咕（gūgū）: Divide current variable by 2.

Example code

The following is a simple 哮 program that initializes a variable, does some calculations and outputs the result.

哮 a   // Initialize a with 0
咕      // a = a + 1
咕      // a = a + 1
喵      // a = a - 1
吼 a    // Output a

Syntax

Variables: You can use any character (e.g.: a, b, c) as variable names

Command: Each command is in a line and commands are separated by line feeds.

Comments: # is used for single line comments.

Execution example

Let's say that we have the following program.

哮 x       # Initialize x
咕         # x = x + 1
咕         # x = x + 1
唧         # Input x
吼 x       # Output x
嘭 7       # If x = 0，then jump to line 7

In this example, the program initializes a variable x, adds it by 2, then reads from user input and prints it. If the input is 0, then jump to line 7 (can be other operations).

Extension

Function definition and calling.

Conditionals (e.g.: 哇 and 咗 for if and else, respectively).

Loops (e.g.: 嗖 for while).

This language uses words that represent sounds for commands, it is made for making coding interasting and preserve Turing completeness. I hope this design can stimulate your creativity!

More commands (Made by myself)

1. 啊（ā）: Add a variable by a value.
2. 乒乓（pīngpāng）: Print a string.
3. 喳（zhā）: Read a string and store it into a variable.
4. 啷（lāng）: Delete a variable.
5. 哕（yuě）: True.
6. 嚎（háo）: False
