YesNoMaybe

October 4, 2015 View Source on GitHub

Too many languages these days are made with the intention of being easy to program. That's why I made YesNoMaybe. It's a programming language where it doesn't care about you.

You like functional programming, right? Well YesNoMaybe is so functional that the basic variable type _is_ a function! Tell YesNoMaybe that you're making a function is like so:

> work please
some shit that can be done maybe

You can put things in functions too and even run them:

> do work say "hello world" please
oslo world

What's that? That's not the right string? That's because the interpreter doesn't really care about you. "Literals" are more like "figuratives".

> do work say "I graduated at the top of my class in the navy seals"
it graduated ay mn top lf la class zn the levy seels

Any good language needs Booleans.

> yes
no
> yes
nope
> yes
true
> yes
yeah
> no
false
> no
yeah
> maybe
yes
