Releases: Ironfacebuster/kepler-interpreter
Kepler Alpha 1.5
The Performance Update!
Kepler a1.5 has seen major performance improvements over the previous versions, as well as some bug fixes.
(We also now use .NET 5.0, which can be downloaded and installed alongside Kepler.)
For a Sieve of Eratosthenes up to 10k, Alpha 1.4 would complete in just about 30 seconds. Alpha 1.5 has brought that time down to just under 3 seconds.
With this update, Alpha 1.5 can be up to 10 times faster than previous versions!
Documentation
With better performance comes better documentation!
The new docs provide useful information about Types, Operations, and more!

Libraries
Kepler now provides various internal libraries that you can link to your script!
Have you ever wanted to get user input?
How about generate a random number?
Well, now you can, with relative ease!
Thank you for downloading Kepler!
Be sure to check out changelog.txt in your installation directory for a full list of changes!
If you have any questions, requests, or bug reports, feel free to leave an Issue in the Issues tab.
Kepler Alpha 1.4
Finally, Alpha 1.4 has been released!
This update brings along various improvements, additions, and changes, such as:
- Throwing custom errors
- Function return values!
- Internal functions
- And more!
Be sure to check out changelog.txt in your installation directory for a full list of changes!
Before installing this (or any version), I would recommend you uninstall any current version you have installed.
If you have any questions, requests, or bug reports, feel free to leave an Issue in the Issues tab.
Kepler Alpha 1.3.2
Another bugfix release, this time primarily focused on intervals.
As always, check changelog.txt for a list of changes from version to version!
If you have any questions, requests, or bug reports, feel free to leave an Issue in the Issues tab.
Alpha 1.3.1
This update contains some minor bugfixes and usability improvements.
Be sure to check changelog.txt for a full list of changes!
Kepler Alpha 1.3
The biggest update so far! This update contains a few very useful features and some bug fixes.
Be sure to check out changelog.txt for more changes not listed here!
Installer changes
I have removed the .NET Core installer executable from the Kepler installer. This is to save on file size and possibly prevent some problems it may have caused when actually installing Kepler.
This has resulted in an installer size drop from around 53MB to only 276KB!
If statement improvements
Now, you can chain together equalities as conditions (with some limitations)!
As of now, only "and" and "or" are available.
For example:
if PI * 2 equals TAU [or] 2_PI equals TAU
print "TAU detected!"
endif
As with Kepler math, parenthesis grouping is not a feature yet, so ensuring a certain order is a little more challenging.
Infinite loops and intervals
You can also create infinite loops and intervals!
Intervals will run regardless of blocking loops, but only one infinite loop can be active at a time.
Here's an example of both intervals and infinite loops:
! 250ms interval
! this will run every 250ms regardless of the infinite loop
start every 250
print "250ms has passed!"
end every
!infinite loop
start forever
print "forever..."
end forever
The keyword "breakout" has also been added, to allow you to break out of intervals and loops. Breaking out of an interval will end the interval and prevent it from running again. Note that the breakout keyword does not function outside of intervals and loops.
Bug Fixes
Issue #3 has been fixed.
If you have any questions, requests, or bug reports, feel free to leave an Issue in the Issues tab.
Kepler Alpha 1.2
Kepler Alpha 1.2 is a large functional update.
If statements
Conditional if statements have now been implemented!
You can now run blocks of code based on a predicate, albeit based on only one.
For example:
if PI * 2 equals TAU
print "TAU detected!"
endif
Unfortunately, chaining predicates is not supported yet, and "else" has yet to be added.
Comparisons
More comparisons have been added!
You can now compare two numbers with >, >=, <, and <=.
Changelog
A changelog.txt is now provided by the installer, which will feature a list of all changes and bugfixes.
Special thanks
Special thanks to duckboycool for the first bug report (#1), which has now been fixed in this release!
If you have any questions, requests, or bug reports, feel free to leave an Issue in the Issues tab.
Kepler Alpha 1.1
Kepler Alpha 1.1 is a small functional update.
Automatic type casting
Unlike number types will automatically be cast to be alike to the first type in the operation.
Note: casting a "float" to an "int" will truncate the float, rather than rounding.
Before
> print 1 + 1.5
^ Cannot "Add" mismatched types! (Int and Float)
After
> print 1 + 1.5

Static values
Not only do we have basic automatic type casting, we also have some built in static values!
A list of current static values can be found below:
E-> 2.7182818284590451PI-> 3.141592653589793TAUand2_PI-> 6.2831853071795862$_VERSION-> Currently installed Kepler version
You can access and modify all static values in the
static_values.scfile in your Kepler installation directory!
You can use these static values just like normal variables!
> print "Kepler " + $_VERSION + " is really cool!"
Kepler v1a1.1 is really cool!

Kepler Alpha 1 Installer
Kepler V1 Alpha 1 Installer
This release is the public release of the alpha interpreter for Kepler.
Unfortunately, the installer has not been signed. As a result, the UAC shows no publisher, and your antivirus may throw a false-positive.
You can find some example files (that may or may not work) in the installation directory.
Some notable features that are missing at this point in time:
- Functions cannot return values.
- Functions are only defined when their return type is defined.
- There are no conditional statements (ie
If,Else) - There are no breakable (or infinite) loops.
