SSL supports the following types:
- integer (32 bits)
- floating point (64 bits)
- strings (null-terminated)
Currently, only comparisons (IF statements) use booleans.
All variable names are one letter long.
Like in Fortran, variables i through n are integers.
Variables a through h are 64-bit floats.
(Future expansion: variables o through r are booleans.)
Variables s through z are strings.
Integer constants can be from -2^31-1 to 2^31.
Floating point constants must include a dot (e.g., 3.0)
Use a hashtag (#) for a comment to end-of-line.
Integer or floating point math: + - * /
Integer or floating point comparisons: == != < <= > >=
(Future expansion: Strings: + [index] and comparisons.)
There are assignments, control flow, and output statements.
(variable) = (expression)
Expressions are limited to a simple assignment or a single binary expression, e.g.,
a = 3.0
b = a + 1.0
c = a * b
if [comparison expr] then
statements
else
statements
endif
for [int variable] = [int expr] to [int expr]
statements
endfor
Future expansion: for [int variable] = [int expr] to [int expr] step [int expr]
print expr
println expr
Factorial:
j=1
n=10
for i = 1 to n
j = j * i
endfor
println j
