SyntaX (for C#) 🚀

SyntaX is a lightweight, easy-to-use utility library designed to bring the simplicity of Python's syntax to the C# / .NET Ecosystem.

Are you tired of C#'s verbose boilerplate code like Console.WriteLine or complex Random object instantiations just to get a simple result? SyntaX allows you to write cleaner, more readable code. It serves as a versatile tool for developers who want to focus on logic rather than syntax.

🌟 Key Features

• Python-like Syntax: Familiar functions like print(), input(), and randint().
• Static Import Support: Use functions directly without class prefixes thanks to C# using static directives.
• Zero Dependencies: Built entirely on the standard .NET System libraries.
• Optimized I/O: Simplified console handling with built-in support for multiple arguments in print().
• Human-Readable Math: Simplified factorial, power, and square root functions.

🛠️ Usage & Examples

To keep this documentation clean, we have provided a dedicated example file. You can find comprehensive usage examples covering:

• Simplified I/O (print and input with optional prompts)
• File Operations (read_file and write_file using System.IO)
• Logic & Math Helpers (randint, square_root, factorial)
• System Utilities (clear screen and sleep)

📂 Installation

1. Download the bettersyntax.cs file.
2. Place it in your project's directory.
3. Ensure the file is included in your project (VS Code or Visual Studio will detect it).
4. For the cleanest experience, add using static bettersyntax.SyntaX; at the top of your code to start coding like Python!

---

🚀 Advanced Installation (System-wide)

If you want to use SyntaX across multiple projects:

1. Compile the library into a DLL: csc /target:library bettersyntax.cs
2. Reference the bettersyntax.dll in your other .NET projects.
3. Use the namespace to access all features globally!

💻 Technical Details

The library is wrapped in the bettersyntax namespace and utilizes a static class structure. By using the params object[] keyword in the print() function, SyntaX allows for an unlimited number of arguments of any type, mirroring Python's flexible output system while maintaining C#'s type safety.

Development Comparison

Feature	Standard C# (Vanilla)	SyntaX for C# (bettersyntax)
Output	Console.WriteLine(x + " " + y);	print(x, y);
User Input	string s = Console.ReadLine();	string s = input("Name: ");
Random Number	new Random().Next(min, max + 1);	randint(min, max);
Sleep/Wait	Thread.Sleep(1000);	sleep(1.0);
File Reading	File.ReadAllText("data.txt");	read_file("data.txt");
List Search	list.Contains(element);	contains(list, element);
