Simpl is an esoteric programming language created by User:Cordership that is really simple.
Examples
Hello, world!
print (Hello, World!)
Fibonacci sequence
assign var a = 1 ask (The desired Fibonacci number is in what place?) assign var n = ans def fib(x) = fib(x) + fib(x - 1) def fib(1) = 1 repeat n: -> assign var a = fib(x) -> print (a) end program
Collatz sequence
ask (Input?)
assign var a = ans
def col (x) = 3x + 1 {mod(x, 2) = 1}, x/2 {mod(x, 2) = 0}
repeat until a = 1:
-> assign var a = col(a)
-> print (a)
end program
Truth-machine
ask (Input?) assign var a = ans check if a = 0 yes: -> print (0) -> end program no: -> end program check if input is 1 yes: -> repeat inf: -> -> print (1) -> no: -> -> end program
Check even/odd
ask (Input?) assign var a = ans check if mod(a, 2)=0 yes: -> print (join(a; is even)) -> end program no: -> print (join(a; is odd)) -> end program
Looping counter
assign var a = 1 def f(x) = x + 1 repeat inf: -> print (num of (*) = a) -> assign var a = f(a)
99 bottles of beer on the wall
assign var n = 99 def f(x) = x - 1 repeat until a = 2: -> print (n bottles of beer on the wall, n bottles of beer. Take one down, pass it around, n bottles of beer on the wall.) -> assign var n = f(n) print (1 bottle of beer on the wall, 1 bottle of beer. Take one down, pass it around, No bottles of beer on the wall.) print (No bottles of beer on the wall, No bottles of beer. Go to the store, buy some more, 99 bottles of beer on the wall.) end program
