The ParaCode Programming Language!

• Open Source
• Highly Human Readable
• Cross-Platform
• Continuously Developed
• Highly Portable

If you are using the python files, run installDependencies.py If you are using the executable file, run the installDependencies executable

1. Download the ParaCode Programming Language, that being either your platform's executable file, or the python files.
2. If you download the python files, run shell.py. If you download your platform's executable file, then run the downloaded file. (There might be an installation process here)

1. Install the ParaCode package with

pip install ParaCode

2. In your python file, if you want to run the shell, import ParaCode with

from ParaCode import shell

Otherwise, if you want to run ParaCode code without the shell, import ParaCode with

from ParaCode import basic

3. If you are running the shell, add the following to your python file

shell.RunShell()

Otherwise, if you are running ParaCode code without the shell, add the following to your python file

basic.run('<stdin>', 'PRINT("Hello, World!'))

And of course, replace the second argument with the code you want to run

config.toml is a file that is required by ParaCode. This is the default config.toml:

# Configuration For The Shell
[shell]
userColor = "white"
userStyle = "none"
consoleColor = "white"
consoleStyle = "none"
pointerColor = "green"
pointerStyle = "none"
errorColor = "red"
errorStyle = "none"

# Configuration For ParaCode
[lang]
packagePath = "Packages/"

preferences.toml is a file that is not required by ParaCode, but will be created when you run a command like RUN("HelloWorld.para") in the shell. It is used by ParaCode to run the correct file when you execute the command RUN in the shell.

All of the following examples can be found in the Examples Folder If you are using the ParaCode package, than go to the GitHub Repository. If you have an example that you would like to submit, Email Me, or submit a pull request.

RUN("HelloWorld.para")

And replace HelloWorld.para with the file name

On windows, you can also just open the ParaCode file and it will automatically open in the shell and run

# This is a comment like Python's
// This is a comment like many other languages
; This is a comment like Assembly's

// For Without Color
PRINT("Hello, World!")
ECHO("Hello, World!")

// For Color
PRINT("Hello, World!", "Blue")
ECHO("Hello, World!", "Green")
PRINTCOLOR("Hello, World!", "Yellow")
ECHOCOLOR("Hello, World!", "Red")

Variables can be created and set with either the VAR keyword or the VARIABLE keyword. Example:

VAR string = "Hello, World!"
PRINT(string)
VARIABLE string = "!dlrow, olleH"
PRINT(string)

Functions can be created with either the FUNCTION keyword or the FUNC keyword. Example:

FUNCTION sayHello(name)
    PRINT("Hello, " + name + "!", "RED")
END

FUNC sayHello2(name)
    PRINT("Hello, " + name + "!", "RED")
END

sayHello("Bob")
sayHello2("Jerry")

You can create a file with CREATEFILE(fileName) Example:

CREATEFILE("text.txt")

You can delete a file with DELETEFILE(fileName) Example:

DELETEFILE("text.txt")

You can write to a file with WRITEFILE(fileName, textToWrite) Example:

WRITEFILE("text.txt", "test")

You can read from a file with READFILE(fileName) Example:

READFILE("text.txt")

You can append text to a file with APPENDFILE(fileName, textToWrite) Example:

APPENDFILE("text.txt", "test")

You can get the year with GETYEAR() Example:

PRINT(GETYEAR())

You can get the month with GETMONTH() Example:

PRINT(GETMONTH())

You can get the day with GETDAY() Example:

PRINT(GETDAY())

You can input with INPUT Example:

VAR input = INPUT("Name >> ")
PRINT(input)

You can use colors with the corresponding name, or you can use the hex value

PRINT("Hello, World!")

You can create a Discord Bot using ParaCode using the built-in Discord.para API. To get started, add DISCORDTOKEN(token) to set the token, or later, when running the bot, add the token as a parameter. Add VAR client = DISCORDCLIENT()
