ragul-lang 0.2.0

Ragul — an agglutinative programming language

Ragul

A pipeline scripting language where transformation is built into the syntax itself. Each word is a suffix chain — a left-to-right pipeline stacked onto a root value. Inspired by the structural principles of agglutinative grammar (Hungarian).

data-into  [7, 2, 15, 3, 9, 1, 12, 4]-it.
result-into  data-unique-sorted-5-above-it.
result-print-doing.
// [7, 9, 12, 15]

Examples

Hello World

program-ours-effect
    greeting-into  "Hello, World!"-it.
    greeting-print-doing.

Arithmetic pipeline

program-ours-effect
    x-into  10-it.
    y-into  x-3-add-2-mul-it.   // (10 + 3) × 2 = 26
    y-print-doing.

Filter and sort a list

program-ours-effect
    data-into    [7, 2, 15, 3, 9, 1, 12, 4]-it.
    result-into  data-unique-sorted-5-above-it.
    result-print-doing.
// [7, 9, 12, 15]

Define and call a custom suffix

// Define -double as a reusable suffix
double-ours
    num-yours.
    num-num-add-it.

program-ours-effect
    x-into  7-it.
    y-into  x-double-it.    // 14
    y-print-doing.

Conditionals

classify-ours-if
    num-yours.
    num-100-above-if
        "large"-it.
    -else-if  num-50-above-if
        "medium"-it.
    -else
        "small"-it.

program-ours-effect
    category-into  75-classify-if-it.
    category-print-doing.
// medium

Loops

// Sum a list using fold
summer-ours-fold
    item-yours.
    total-yours.
    total-item-add-it.

program-ours-effect
    list-into    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]-it.
    result-into  list-summer-fold-it  0-with.
    result-print-doing.
// 15

Error handling

program-ours-effect
    content-into  "data.txt"-readfile-doing-?.
    content-print-doing.
    -catch
        hiba-print-doing.
