Late 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]]
]
