Clock

This language is a WIP.

Clock is a cell-based esoteric language based around time, created by User:Random.esotera.

Structure

':t(h/m/s)' Defines how much time there is in a Clock program. Defaults to 12h0m0s if it isn’t used.

':(h/m/s)(</>)' Rotates current time by specified time. < Means rotate counterclockwise and > means rotate clockwise. This is the main command of Clock.

If you use a multiple of 5 in h/m/s more times than you use a non-multiple of 5 in h/m/s, your program refuses to run, forcing you to be less neat. You may only ever use the same h/m/s value once.

The current second defines the current cell, meaning that there are only 43200 cells, unless you use clock expansions.

Commands

Command	Definition
Rotate CW<=1m29s then CCW any amount	Increment current cell by 1.
Rotate CCW<=1m48s then CW any amount	Decrement current cell by 1.
Rotate CW>=6h25m13s	Output current cell as one ASCII character.
Rotate CW>=7h17m59s	Output current cell as an integer.
Rotate CCW>=6h34m2s	Store input as 1 ASCII character in the current cell.
Rotate CCW>=7h54m33s	Store input as an integer in the current cell.
Rotate CW>=1h3m19s<=2h54m	Go back to the last time you rotated the same amount of time CCW, unless the current cell is equal to 0.
Rotate CCW>=1h3m19s<=2h54m	Skip to the next time you rotate the same amount of time CW if the current cell is equal to 0.
Rotate CW>=8h45m15s	NOP.
Rotate CCW>=8h35m42s	NOP.
