mom-code

Expressions

The language supports numeric expressions with at most 2 specific operators -- + for addition and * for multiplication. Subtraction and division are TODOs for the future as of now. The language also supports strings and follows the same type coercions rules that Javascript does.

Loops

Loops in mom-code have the following syntax:

repeat(x){ y } is the syntax used to repeat an expression y an x number of times.

Variables

Variables in mom-code have a different syntax than what would be expected of a traditional imperative language.

save x as y is the syntax used to save values into variables where x is the expression and y is the identifier.

In-Built Functions

Right now the only function supported as part of the language is print(x).

Sample Code (all code must be entered into the interpreter one line at a time)

This sample program prints out "hello world" 3 times.

save "hello" as hello

save "world" as world

repeat(3){ print(hello + " " + world) }

This sample program adds up all the numbers from 1 to 10 and prints it out.

save 0 as sum

repeat(10){ save sum + 1 as sum }

print(sum)
