Bulb Chain

Bulb Chain is a toy language made to improve my TypeScript programming skill.

Language Syntax

Short Example

@MySpace (This defines a namespace.)
[
    @Proc1{++++}
    @Proc2{===}
]

(This defines an alias for a namespace.)
@My<.../MySpace>

("Main" procedure will be
 displayed through the console.)
@Main{ <My/Proc1>----<My/Proc2>---- }

Bulb's Behavior

• when signal is true or false

  • "-" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (bulb, signal)
  • "~" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (bulb, not signal)
  • "+" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (bulb, signal xnor bulb)
  • "=" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (bulb, signal xor bulb)
  • "|" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (undefined, signal)
  • "$" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (undefined, not signal)
  • ":" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (if(signal is bulb) then(bulb) else(undefined), signal)

• when signal is undefined

  • "|" or "$" :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (bulb, bulb)
  • others :
    • (signal, bulb) <- (undefined, bulb)
