Funciton (pronounced: /ˈfʌŋkɪtɒn/) is a two-dimensional, declarative, functional, esoteric programming language.

Usage

• Funciton.exe sourcefile(s) [-t[name] [-t[name]] ...] [-s<string>|-i<integer>]

  • Executes (interprets) a Funciton program.

• Funciton.exe sourcefile(s) -c<file>

  • Compiles a Funciton program to an exe.

• Funciton.exe sourcefile(s) -a[name] [-a[name] ...]

  • Displays a debug analysis.

Options

• Interpreting Funciton programs:

  • -t[name]
    • Displays a debug trace of any number of functions and/or the main program during execution. For example, -t+ -t× -t traces the + and × functions and the main program.
  • -s<string>
    • Specifies a string to use as standard input (actual stdin is ignored). Cannot be used with -i.
  • -i<integer>
    • Makes the stdin box return this integer (even if it is not a valid string) (actual stdin is ignored). Cannot be used with -s.

• Compiling Funciton programs:

  • -c<filename>
    • Compiles the Funciton program to an exe and writes the output to the specified filename.

• Miscellaneous:

  • -a[name]
    • Displays analyses of any number of functions and/or the main program. For example, -a+ -a× -a analyzes the + and × functions and the main program. (The program is not executed.)

Notes on the compiler

There is a known issue with compiling code that makes use of lambda expressions.
