Qualm is an esolang, which uses a cell-based memory model.
You can install Qualm from PyPi: python3 -m pip install --user qualm
Or clone the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/wilfreddv/qualm.git
$ cd qualm
$ python3 -m pip install --user .
Data operations:
|<delimiter> split string on delimiter
@ index of, e.g.: "'apples pears bananas:@'apples
The special character `$` will find EOL (strlen())
$ indexing
i turn into integer
c turn into character (chr())
o turn into ascii value (ord())
& open file
. read from STDIN
.&[<]<slot> read from file handle
! write to STDOUT
!&<slot> write to file handle
w working cell
s<number> swap <number> var with w
><number> push w to <number>
<<number> pop <number> to w
<operation>><number> write output of previous operation to <number>
<number> can also be `w`, like sw
v<data> put data in w
'...: string data
{<condition>{...} loop
(...) function definition
~ call a function
<number>+<number> add
<number>-<number> sub
<number>*<number> mul
<number>/<number> div
<number>%<number> mod
<number>=<number> equals
<expr>!=<expr> neq
<expr><=<expr> smaller
<expr>>=<expr> bigger
When the & instruction is issued, Qualm will open a file with the following parameters:
w: filename0: the mode (0, 1, 2, 3 for r, w, r+, a respectively)
If w is __SOCKET, it opens a TCP server-socket that will listen. The arguments are host and port.
A file handle will be returned to w. This can be used for reading and writing.
A function is defined using parentheses. After the definition, the pointer to the function will be stored in w.
When a call ~ is issued, the pointer will be read from w.
The return address is remembered automatically.
