The Nsquared programming language is a statically typed, imperative language that uses the abstraction of Expressions and Statements. Compiler built in C.

Sub Class: Procedural or Object-Oriented

Statement - Execution
    statement := declaration | if | ifelse | while | return
      declaration := type label = expression semi
        type := user | primative
          user := [A-Z][a-zA-Z]*
          primative := Int | Char | Bool | Float
        label := [A-Z][a-zA-Z]*
      if := if ( expression ) { statement semi }
      ifelse := if ( expression ) { statement semi } else { statement semi }
      while := while ( expression ) { statement semi }
      return := return expression semi

Expression - Evaluation
    expression := 

• User defined types must start with a capital letter and follow pascal case

Categories: Signed, Unsigned,

Signed / Unsigned Total size of Type

Whole Numbers: 8 bits 16 bits 32 bits 64 bits

The Integer type has a size of 32 bit. This data type represents the set of Natural Numbers with a lower bound of -2,147,483,647 and an upper bound of 2,147,483,647.

The Float type has a size of 32 bits, 1 bit for the sign, 23 bits for the matissa, and 8 bits for the exponent. This data type represents the set of Real Numbers with a lower bound of 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000034 and an upper bound of 339,999,999,999,999,996,123,846,586,046,231,871,488.

The Boolean type has a size of 1 bit. This data type represents propositional logic, where 1 is for true, and 0 for false.

The Character type has a size of 8 bits, representing one byte of unsigned data. This data type represents each of the character codes from the ASCII table.

The Nsquared programming language does not have public and private members to a Type, but instead defines these members by their scope.

To write a Nsquared program... Documentation for the Nsquared programming language can be found here

The Nsquared compiler, located here, can be built by the command $ make when in the nsquared/compiler directory. To use the compiler enter the command:

$ nsc -r

for REPL mode, or

$ nsc filename.ns

for file mode.
