pytov

Python but tov (good).

Examples
Visual Studio Code Extension

Features

• Curly braces (not must)
• No identation errors (if you use the curly braces)
• Long and short comments (/**/, //)
• Short boolean operators (and - &&, or - ||, not - !)
• Lower case true and false supported too
• Switch statement
• Compiles to python

Requirements

• python 3

How to use

First, run $ pip install pytov, and then, to run files, simply run in the command line $ pytov path_to_file. If you want to also save the compiled python file use ($ pytov path_to_file -py).

Syntax

if (1 && 1){
                   print("i dont care about indentation");
   if(1==1){
print("except");
}
       }
if (1!=2){
    print("\'ihihih\'");
    print({"hi":1}["hi"]);
}

def hi(){
    print("hi");
}

def hello(){
    print("hello\"");
}

print(true || false) // you don't have to use capital T and F in true and false.

def indentation():
    print("You don't have to use the braces, the regular indentation works too")


anotherTest()

dict = {"hello":1};

/*
this will not be an error
multi line
*/

//this one too

print(1 /_ 3) // floor division

switch("hii", {
    "hello":
        lambda{ print("hello"); },
    "hi":
        lambda{ print("hi"); },
    },
        lambda{ print("default case"); },
);

The sample above shows use of pytov syntax.

Just like C, use curly braces instead of colons (but they still work too), and there are no more identation errors.

def test(){
        print("no identation errors")
    pass
}
if (1 == 1){
    pass
}

Switch

switch(var, cases, *args)

• var - the value to switch on.
• case - a dictionery of case that the var might be and their callbacks.
• *args(optional) - default case.

switch is a selection statement that chooses a single switch section to execute from a list of cases.

Comments

Multiline:

/*
use this syntax if you want the text to be commented out
and yes, it works on multiple lines.
*/

Single line

// you can also write single line comments like this

Short boolean operators

Instead of:

if True and False:
    pass
elif True or False:
    pass
elif not True:
    pass

you can now use:

if True && False{
    pass
}
elif True || False{
    pass
}
elif !True{
    pass
}
