Variables and Keywords
Variables and keywords are differentiated by capitalisation. Variables should aways be lowercase, whereas keywords are always UPPERCASE.
New Lines
Generally, each new keyword command in ArnoldC should be written on a new line. Code written like this will not work:
GET TO THE CHOPPER x
HERE IS MY INVITATION y KNOCK KNOCK z
ENOUGH TALK
Examples

IT'S SHOWTIME TALK TO THE HAND "Hello, world!" YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED
