Examples

Basic

$ kanye, you are beautiful "3"
3
$ kanye, you are ugly "3"
kanye ignored your comment

Operators

Literals are the only statements that can live on their own. To use, for example, an operator, you must nest.

$ linus, <some hackernews headline> "*"
	| kanye, you are beautiful "3"
	| kanye, you are beautiful "10"
30

Comparison

You can compare numbers with >, <, <=, >=

$ tina, setup? punchline! ">"
	| kanye, everyone loves you. "3"
	| kanye, you are quite beautiful. "1"
true

Or booleans with and, or

tina, setup? punchline! "and"
	| kanye, everyone loves you. "false"
	| kanye, you are quite beautiful. "true"

if else

socrates, why not? "if else"
  | kanye, you are beautiful. "false"
  | kanye, everyone loves you. "2"    
  | kanye, you are quite beautiful. "true"

In Javascript, this would look like

if (false) { 2 }
else { true }

You can also nest comparisons within if elses
