ArnoldC
ArnoldC is an imperative programming language where the basic keywords are replaced with quotes from different Schwarzenegger movies. Parsing is done with Parboiled and ASM is used to generate the Java bytecode.
Every ArnoldC program must have a main method. The form is:
IT'S SHOWTIME
[statements]
YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED
The simplest possible ArnoldC program that does nothing
IT'S SHOWTIME
YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED
The statement TALK TO THE HAND is used to print strings or variables.
Printing a string
TALK TO THE HAND "happy families are all alike"
Printing a variable
TALK TO THE HAND myvar
The only variable type in ArnoldC is a 16bit signed integer. A value must be given to the variable when it is declared.
HEY CHRISTMAS TREE variablename
YOU SET US UP initialvalue
The "macros" @I LIED and @NO PROBLEMO correspond to the values 0 and 1
Initialising two variables with the values of 0 and 1
HEY CHRISTMAS TREE varFalse
YOU SET US UP @I LIED
HEY CHRISTMAS TREE varTrue
YOU SET US UP @NO PROBLEMO
Variable assignment is done using the pattern
GET TO THE CHOPPER myvar
HERE IS MY INVITATION firstOperand
[operations]
ENOUGH TALK
The HERE IS MY INVITATION sets a value on the top of the stack. The rest of the operations always apply to the current value of the stack which is finally assigned to the myvar variable.
Plus
GET UP operand
Minus
GET DOWN operand
Multiplication
YOU'RE FIRED operand
Division
HE HAD TO SPLIT operand
All the arithmetic operations have the same precedence.
Example a = (4 + b) * 2
GET TO THE CHOPPER a
HERE IS MY INVITATION 4
GET UP b
YOU'RE FIRED 2
ENOUGH TALK
True statements result the value of 1 and false statements the value of 0.
Equal to
YOU ARE NOT YOU YOU ARE ME operand
Greater than
LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET operand
Or
CONSIDER THAT A DIVORCE operand
And
KNOCK KNOCK operand
Example a = (b + 5) > c
GET TO THE CHOPPER a
HERE IS MY INVITATION b
GET UP 5
LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET c
ENOUGH TALK
Example a = (b || c) && d
GET TO THE CHOPPER a
HERE IS MY INVITATION b
CONSIDER THAT A DIVORCE c
KNOCK KNOCK d
ENOUGH TALK
The condition branch is executed if the value is anything other than 0.
if (value) [statements]
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO SAY PLEASE value
[statements]
YOU HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LOGIC
if (value) [statements] else [statements]
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO SAY PLEASE value
[statements]
BULLSHIT
[statements]
YOU HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LOGIC
Example
if(a) print "a is true"
else print "a is not true"
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO SAY PLEASE a
TALK TO THE HAND "a is true"
BULLSHIT
TALK TO THE HAND "a is not true"
YOU HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LOGIC
Example The value of the condition statement must be calculated beforehand
if(a > b) print "a is greater than b"
GET TO THE CHOPPER result
HERE IS MY INVITATION a
LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET b
ENOUGH TALK
BECAUSE I'M GOING TO SAY PLEASE result
TALK TO THE HAND "a is greater b"
YOU HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LOGIC
STICK AROUND value
[statements]
CHILL
Example A full program printing numbers 1-10
IT'S SHOWTIME
HEY CHRISTMAS TREE isLessThan10
YOU SET US UP @NO PROBLEMO
HEY CHRISTMAS TREE n
YOU SET US UP 0
STICK AROUND isLessThan10
GET TO THE CHOPPER n
HERE IS MY INVITATION n
GET UP 1
ENOUGH TALK
TALK TO THE HAND n
GET TO THE CHOPPER isLessThan10
HERE IS MY INVITATION 10
LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET n
ENOUGH TALK
CHILL

Methods must be defined outside the main method. The method arguments are defined with I NEED YOUR CLOTHES YOUR BOOTS AND YOUR MOTORCYCLE arg. The one-liner must be added for each argument separately. GIVE THESE PEOPLE AIR at the end of the "method declaration" indicates the method is non-void. I'LL BE BACK is the keyword for RETURN and it can take an operand depending whether the method is void or not.
A void method
LISTEN TO ME VERY CAREFULLY methodName
[Statements]
HASTA LA VISTA, BABY
A non-void method that takes two parameters
LISTEN TO ME VERY CAREFULLY methodName
I NEED YOUR CLOTHES YOUR BOOTS AND YOUR MOTORCYCLE arg1
I NEED YOUR CLOTHES YOUR BOOTS AND YOUR MOTORCYCLE arg2
