Drive-In Window extended

Drive-In Window extended is an esoteric programming language based on Drive-In Window, created by User:Alex_s168. The layout is similar to what someone would order at a restaurant.

Commands and Syntax

Pre-program declarations

A Drive-In Window program always starts with a greeting and a restaurant declaration. Optionally also with a menu declaration. (recommended)

The menu contains constants. It consists of 2 parts (not all are required), the main dishes and the side dishes. The values of the main dishes can only be multiples of 10, while the side dishes can only be values from 1 to 9. Every value in the menu cannot be 0 or negative nor can it exceed 255. (only 8-bit integers)

After this comes the programm start declaration "May I take your order?"

Example of the menu and start:

Hi, welcome to ZheBurger.

Here is the menu:
   Cheese burger: 20€

Here are the sides:
   Fries: 7€

May I take your order?

There are 2 possible currencies but you have to use the same one across the whole code! - Euro 3€ - Dollar $3

In-program commands

Variable creation

To "create" new variable(s) (=person) if you have no variables yet:

Hello! We are 3 people!

(creates 3 variables. From 1 to 3)

if you already have variables:

Person 5 joined us!

(creates the variable 5)

Loops and conditions

To repeat something until the value of the person is 0

Lets just do this until Person 3 has no more money:
   # do stuff
Until here!

To execute something if a person has money

If Person 3 has money:
   # do stuff
Until here!
# optional else
Otherwise:
   # do other stuff
Until here!

Instructions

Code	Meaning
Just wait while we decide...	Pauses the programm until the enter key is pressed
Person N will pay for PRONOUN order.	Outputs the value of person N (as ascii) and sets its value to 0
Person N would like menu_item.	Set person N to menu_item
Person N would like menu_item, hold the other_item.	Set person N to menu_item - other - item
Person N would like menu_item with other_item.	Set person N to menu_item + other_item
Person N would like what Person B has.	Set person N to person B
Person N would also like menu_item.	Increments person N by menu_item
Person N would not like menu_item.	Decrements person N by menu_item
Person N has no more money.	Sets person N to 0
Person N needs X more.	Increments person N by X
Person N needs X less.	Decrements person N by X
Person N borrows X from Person B.	Moves X from B to N
Okay, what should Person N get?	input one char (ascii value) into person N
Okay, how much money should Person N have?	input int (8 bit) into person N
Okay, that will be N.	exits the programm with 8-bit exit code N (not requiered)

Computational class

Drive-In Window is a bounded-storage machine, since a program doesn't have access to more bytes than the number of persons in it.
