Code Runs Everything Around Me

CREAM is the best programming language you never thought you needed.
Inspired by the great teaching and style of the Wu-Tang Clan, CREAM
is a dynamic powerhouse programming language. CREAM is designed to
be the cross between Python and Java that you never wanted.

Quickstart and Setup

To run programs in CREAM you need to have Python3.6 installed.
There are no current outside dependencies needed.
To run a program written in CREAM go to a command line and run
python -m CREAM <file_name.crm>
Note that the only files CREAM recognizes are .crm because reasons.

Keywords / Special Characters

CREAM (somehow) shares very little keywords with Java or Python... so pay attention

KeyWord / Character	Meaning
'return'	returns some value
'?'	beginning of an if statement
'??'	else if block
'?!'	else block
'while'	the only looping structure in CREAM because for loops are too mainstream
'exit'	same as a break statement in Java or Python exit just seemed like it made more sense
'next'	same as continue in Java or Python
'in'	used as in Python's for loop (examples in test directory)
'match'	(not implemented, but it's a keyword)
'when'	(not implemented, but it's a keyword)
'true'	tried and true true
'false'	the opposite of true
'entity'	same as class identifier in Java or Python
'self'	self reference (similar to Python or this in Java)
'->'	denotes the beginning of a function
'<-'	denotes the beginning of a class definition

Example Programs

Factorial

factorial_with_recursion -> (n)   {
    (n == 1) ? {
        return 1
    }
    (n == 0) ?? {
        return 1
    }
    ?!  {
        return n * factorial_with_recursion(n - 1)
    }
}
.
.
.  
print("RECURSION")
print(factorial_with_recursion(10))

For more examples check out the test directory. The entity.crm file probably won't work...but have no fear
fixes are coming soon.
