Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

    entier i, j

  algorithme procedure swap
    parametres globaux
      entier i, j

    variables
      entier tmp

  debut
    tmp ← i
    i ← j
    j ← tmp
  fin algorithme procedure swap

debut
  i ← 2
  j ← 4
  swap(i, j)
  afficher(chaine(i) + chaine(j)) /* prints 42 */
fin algorithme test

Language documentation

Documentation in french

Note

selon expressions differ slightly from the previous documentation. There is a cas keyword added in the mix to allow LALR parsing :

selon expression faire
  cas val1, val2: expr1
                  expr2
        autrement expr3
                  expr4
fin selon

Good to know

Operator aliases

Some operators have aliases to ease development:

  • <- is equivalent to
  • ^ is equivalent to

nul

There is a special nul keyword to assign the null pointer to any pointer variable and check if a pointer is null.

Available types

Only those base types are available:

  • booleen (defined just like booleen = (faux, vrai))
  • caractere (can be cast with system routines to: chaine, entier)
  • chaine (can be cast with system routines to: entier, reel)
  • entier (can be cast with system routines to: caractere, chaine, reel)
  • reel (can be cast with system routines to: chaine, entier)

System routines

There are some system routines you can use:

  • afficher(chaine): prints the string on stdout (no endline is added automatically)
  • allouer(pointer): allocate memory for the pointed value
  • caractere(value): try to cast value in caractere
  • chaine(value): try to cast value in chaine
  • entier(value): try to cast entier in chaine
  • liberer(pointer): free memory pointed by the provided pointer, do nothing if pointer is nul, resets pointer to nul
  • longueur(chaine): returns the length of the string

Operator []

The operator also allows you to access characters (caractere) in a string (chaine) like in:

afficher("toto"[1])

Important note: In this language, index are from 1 to n and not from 0 to n − 1!
