New Programming Language Being Developed!!
I might have mentioned the 'C RAP' programming
language.
C RAP is a new language being developed by Bill
'PlayDude' Dyons and myself.
Bill hopes to release a C RAP To ANSI C Translator
within the next few days on a C RAP devoted web page
on
the internet (Probably http://surf.to/craplang).
C RAP is actually spelled 'C'RAP.
Wich, in Dutch, stands for 'C' FAST.
But the acronymn, wich I came up with (offcourse..),
stands for Computer Rapid Production Language.
Why should you be excited about Bill and my project?
Because...
- C RAP stands for C FAST. In that it easily
outperforms C in some tasks and is fast to code in.
- C RAP is portable. C RAP programs can be translated
to ANSI C and compiled for any plaftorm with a C
compiler. Even GBDK, the LCC port for Gameboy supports
C RAP.
- C RAP is safe. C RAP offers threaded garbage
collection, dynamic arrays, automatic memory
allocation, subscript, type and overflow checking, and
many other runtime checks.
- C RAP is easier to learn than BASIC. It has a syntax
very similliar to BASIC and ABC, yet with C features
embeded.
Each line of C RAP code is terminated by a dot, just
like in English.
- C RAP offers modern portable built-in graphics,
sound and database support for any target platform
that supports these features.
- A C RAP Interpreter is being written in C RAP To
ANSI
C, and both the Interpreter and Translator are
freeware.
- C RAP will support dynamic interpretation and C RAP
portable DLLs in the future.
- C RAP consists of 3 executables only; Interpreter,
Translator and Binder, and a few standard library
files.
Excited?
But you wanna see some C RAP code first?
Here we go;
array shit of integers.
set shit to {1000,5,6}.
procedure add array b of integers.
call printf 1, "%d!", b[1]+b[2]+b[3].
end procedure.
call add shit.
Let's see what this means;
array shit of integers. [Creates an array of ints]
set shit to {1000,5,6}. [Sets this array to
{1000,5,6}]
procedure add array b of integers. [Proc to add array]
call printf 1, "%d!", b[1]+b[2]+b[3]. [Printf]
end procedure. [Mark end this proc]
call add shit. [Call our function]
C RAP was designed to be easy to parse and implement.
Because of C RAP's ASM-like program flow, the language
can be made to be extremely fast.
The C RAP interpreter being written in C RAP is to be
faster than a JAVA JIT compiler thanks to C RAP's
speedy features.
All that is slow in C RAP is appending elements to
arrays. realloc() is used to guarantee good garbage
collection, portability and fast indexing features,
instead of linked lists.
The following variables are present in C RAP;
integer [32 or 64 bit integer value, overflows to 64
bit]
float [32 or 64 bit float value, overflows to 64]
string [a dynamic array of bytes]
object [any of the above]
I'll keep you all posted.
Don't expect the next C++, though.
This is a free language made in two people's spare
time.
It's supposed to be an alternative language for JAVA
and C programmers working at home, creating
freeware/shareware web applications, games, demos,
database apps, etc. It will not be used to write Quake
IV or Windows 2002.
