Which LOLCODE interpreter to use?
lolcode
Solution
I highly recommend repl.it. It's online, but available for download. It also has other languages like Emoticon, Python, JavaScript and many others. Here's a complete list...
- Ruby
- Python
- Lua
- Scheme
- QBasic
- Forth
- Javascript
- Javascript.next
- Move
- Kaffeine
- CoffeeScript
- Emoticon
- Brainf***
- LOLCODE
- Unlambda
- Bloop
Unlike the name implies, it has a scripting box right next to the REPL. A perfect setup I believe.
Problem
This is similar to this question. What I am asking though, is which LOLCODE interpreter should I pick based on these criteria: 1) Works well and is up-to-date 2) Ease of install - I've looked before and couldn't find one which I found easy to install. Please feel free to give your suggestions and opinions, I haven't looked in a number of months and am curious as to what people think, and I look forward to learning it. EDIT: I am just doing this to learn LOLCODE. Why? Because I can and I think it would be fun to declare variables with ICANHAZ and end programs with KTHXBAI. I'm really just curious. I would really prefer that it be as close to spec as possible. I don't care if it's open or closed source and it can run in either Windows (my desktop) or Linux (my laptop). Hope this helps! EDIT 2: I have downloaded the LOLCODE compiler available here. However, I am having trouble figuring out some of the instructions so I am still open to any suggestions for any other interpreters/compilers.
