I think if you only use the syntactic elements that this language has, Python isn't more complex at all.
Easylang:
a = 7
a = 9 * a
if a > 20
print "WOW!"
print "a is large."
end
print "a: " & a
Python:
a = 7
a = 9 * a
if a > 20:
print("WOW!")
print("a is large.")
print("a: " + a)
I don't think it's worth making a new language just because you added/removed some punctuation. If this was a Python library the person learning it would have the same amount of effort, but they'd know a bit of Python in the end too instead of an esoteric language.
- chkas 4y agoThe syntactic elements are not that different from Python, as you correctly point out. Actually, it is very similar to Lua. So I see it more as a little known but not esoteric programming language (like Brainf***). But semantically it is much easier than Python for beginners.
