Becoming Patient in Writing Programs
- draegtun 13y agoLate reply here because I just tried submitting this link myself :) What got me interested was how another language which used consistent data structure for its syntax would look here in comparison. So here is my stab at it using Rebol... ; Array Access pick x i x/:i ; PATH! alternative ; Function call f x ; Arithmetic (a / 2) + (b * c) + square-root d ; Conditional Branching (part 1) either a = b [x] [y] Rebol doesn't have else if so this looks a little clumsy: ; Conditional Branching (part 2) either a == b [ doThis a x ][ either c == d [ doThat b y ][z] ] And it doesn't have a cond either. However its easy to add one :) cond: func [cond-list] [ foreach line cond-list [ c: compose line if true? c/1 [break/return do c/2] ] ] cond [ [(a = b) [doThis a x]] [(c = d) [doThat b y]] [true [z]] ]
