Pyglish

Pyglish is a free and open-source programming language developed and maintained by d-kiss. It is a verbose syntactical superset of Python, and adds english-like syntax to the language.

Have a look at this python code:

This code snippet is a generator for prime numbers

def primes():
    x = 1
    while True:
        was_divided = False
        x += 1
        for y in xrange(2, x):
            if x % y == 0:
                was_divided = True
        
        if not was_divided:
            yield x

This is how we do it

def primes():
    for every prime x:
        yield x

And if you call this cheating...

def primes():
    yield every natural x if there is no y from 2 to x where x is divided by y

or, if you prefer:

def primes():
    yield x for every number x from 1 to inifinity if there is no number y from 2 to x  where x divides y

Some of Pyglish's important features as we keep in mind are

• 100% full backwards compatability with python.
• Easy to use and intuitive.
• Very elagant syntax
• Strong tests for easy refactoring

Supports:

• Unittests
• Comparisons
• Loops

Future Support:

• Unittests
• Comparisons
• Loops
• Conditions
• Exit codes
• Strong typing
• File I/O
• Socket I/O
• Threading
• Waits (Explicit, Conditions, Implicit)
• Math
• Logging
• Dates
• Strangle
• Abstract classing
• Interfaces
• Equation Return value
• Switch-case
• Elegant Hex Usage
• Event-based programming
• Monoikers
• Then-Success-Failure angular-like promise
• Pyglish ignore
• Recursive walking through directories

Usage

Loops

Pyglish	Python Equivalent
until password is equal to '123':	while password != '123':
as long as user.is_connected():	while user.is_connected():
10 times: print "Hello"	for _ in xrange(10): print "Hello"
for each user in group: print user.age	for user in group: print user.age
for every user in group: print user.name	for user in group: print user.name
foreach user in group: print user.address	for user in group: print user.address

Comparisons

Pyglish	Python Equivalent
if a is equal to b:	if a == b:
if a is not equal to b:	if a != b:
if a is greater than or equal to b:	if a >= b:
if a is greater than or equal to b:	if a > b:
if a is less than or equal to b:	if a <= b:
if a is less than b:	if a < b:
if a is between b and c:	if b <= a <= c:

Unit Testing

Pyglish	Python Equivalent
assert that user.is_connected()	self.assertTrue(user.is_connected())
user.name should be "Dan"	assert user.name == "Dan"
user.name should not be "Daniel"	assert user.name != "Daniel"
assert that sock.connect raises socket.error	self.assertRaises(sock.connect, socket.error)
assert raises NotImplementedError: a = AbstractClass()	with self.assertRaises(NotImplementedError): a = AbstractClass()
name should be equal to get_admin_name()	assert name == get_admin_name()
connection should be CLOSED	assert connection is CLOSED
file_content should not be equal to "Pyglish v1.2"	assert file_content != "Pyglish v1.2"
user_number should be greater than or equal to 6	assert user_number >= 6
