# Strath - The String Math Language
|
||
## What is it?
|
||
Strath is an esolang that has a cryptic syntax and allows you to do math with strings, add them, multiply them, and even multiply with floats!
|
||
|
||
Rust developers hate it, Python developers fear it, and C developers make it blink.
|
||
|
||
## How to Strath
|
||
### Comments
|
||
`;` all text after a semicolon will be treated as a comment
|
||
`&&` all text after a double and will be treated as a comment
|
||
`]][[` an inline command, all text between the double square brackets will be treated as a comment
|
||
\`\`´´ this makes a multiline comment
|
||
|
||
### If, else if/elif, else
|
||
`¿??/condition\? | ()` - if
|
||
`?>/condition\? | ()` - elif/else if
|
||
`\>?/condition\? | ()` - else
|
||
|
||
After `??` and `?>` either a `$` or `€` to declare if all conditions are to be true or false respectivly
|
||
Two variables will be compared by an if statment without "==" eg `¿??$/1 1\? | ()` compares if 1 == 1 and if that result needs to be true to run the code in between the two round brackets
|
||
|
||
### Variable Types
|
||
`}}type{{` uses the standard types like int, str, float, etc
|
||
|
||
Certain types have short declarations
|
||
`ö` declares ints
|
||
`Ö` declares floats
|
||
`ä` declares char
|
||
`Ä` declares string
|
||
`ü` declares list
|
||
`Ü` declares dict
|
||
|
||
wavey brackets aren't needed in this case
|
||
|
||
#### Working With Variables
|
||
Variables are declared by defining the type, the name, and the value (optional) eg:
|
||
`}}int{{ i < 1;`
|
||
|
||
`}int{ i < 1;` A single wavy bracket allows the type of the var to change dynamicly
|
||
|
||
Special behaviour:
|
||
`j > i` will copy i to j and drops i
|
||
`j < i` will copy i to j and maintain i
|
||
|
||
### In-build functions
|
||
`<=` will output a value
|
||
`=>` takes an input and sets the next variable to it as the input
|
||
|
||
### Code
|
||
`¡!` are statments
|
||
`¿?` are expression
