Major Update!
Finally! An Gigantic Update adding tons of new features to Gold! The Medium Rare Update, (Named after Eggs, I know.) is an update that finally adds Functions to the Gold programming language!
This allows you to create wild new Programs with Gold, so lets jump right in.
Overview
Functions, or Eggs as its referred to in the Interpreter, allow you to add snippets of code that can be accessed anywhere in the code. So your gold Program would work like this:
var myGoldProgram = {
name: "Example Gold Program",
des: "An Example Gold Program for the README file.",
int: "regInt",
ex: [
{
fun: "egg",
eFun: "log",
val1: "Hello World!"
},
{
fun: "shell"
},
{
fun: "end"
}
]
};
export { myGoldProgram };
And the output for that Program would be:
Hello World!
You can pretty much do anything that the regular Gold language can do, writing to variables, logging things, etc.
Talking about writing to Variables, there is a new system that you might want to use!
Inputs and Outputs
Another addition in this update are Inputs and Outputs!
In the first post I made, you might remember me talking about how my friend talked about making my own coding language, but he also recommended the other day that I implement Inputs.
So, taking advice from him, you can now use inputs in your programs.
First, your program;
var myGoldProgram = {
name: "Example Gold Program",
des: "An Example Gold Program for the README file.",
int: "regInt",
ex: [
{
fun: "input",
slot: 0
},
{
fun: "logVar",
slot: 0
{
fun: "end"
}
]
};
export { myGoldProgram };
Second, your node command;
npm run regInt Colack
Finally, your output;
Colack
This system can let you do cool things, like get names, and log those names!
You could also probably make an calculator with this. Who knows :)
Finalizing
That just about wraps up this Major Update!
Don't forget, you can always check out the language here
