BasicLang

BasicLang is a minimal, experimental esoteric language designed for simplicity and readability while still being quirky enough to stand out.
It supports basic variables, loops, conditionals, printing, and program exit codes — all with a playful syntax.

✨ Syntax Overview

• Variable Declaration

  imagine x = 10;
  

• Loop

  doit (n) { ... }
  

  Runs the block n times.

• Conditional

  is (condition) { ... } else { ... }
  

• Print

  print("Hello World");
  

• Exit Program

  yeet 0;

📝 Example Program (test.bl)

imagine x = 1;

doit (10) {
    is ((x % 2) == 0) {
        print("even");
    } else {
        print("odd");
    }
    x = x + 1;
}

yeet 255;

Output:

odd
even
odd
even
odd
even
odd
even
odd
even

Exit Code: 255

[P.S - To checkout exit code, use "echo $?" on linux, "echo %ERRORLEVEL%" in cmd or "$LASTEXITCODE" on powershell]
