If statements

  • if
    • If statements require a expression and a command bracket.
    • if &arg (expression) &arg2 [commands]
  • Expressions
    • Supported expressions are: <, >, ==, !=
Example code
if  :size > 30 [stop]

if :size < :othersize [ fd 20 rt 20 ]

if 10 == :othersize [ bk 20 ]

if :something != somethingelse [ penup hideturtle setx 200 ]

Math Operators

  • + or - or / or *
    • Currently basic math is supported.
Example Code
:somevar + 2 
; adds 2 to somevar

:n*2 
; multiplys n by 2

:n/2 
; divides n by 2

2 - :n 
; subtracts 2 by n

Looping

  • repeat or rep
  • [ (Repeat block start)
  • ] (Repeat block end)
    • You must have 1 space after the [ and before the ].
Example Code
rep 10 [ fd 5 ]

Functions

  • to
    • start of a function block
  • end
    • indicates the end of a function block
Example Code
to someFunction 
 fd 1
end


someFunction ;Calls function, simple, no arguments passed in

OR

to someFunctionTwo :n
 fd :n
end


someFunctionTwo 2
;Calls function, passes in 2 for the :n arguments.

Variables

  • :
    • Just a colon, followed by the name of the variable, followed by the value.
Example Code

Comments

  • ;
  • - Just a semicolon, followed by comments. Only works per line.
