Hello,
I'm dreaming of a language with the following requirements:
C# without curly braces and semicolons!
It would be a C# clone but with no curly braces for blocks
and semicolons to end statements but doing it like basic.
Blocks end with "end <type of block>" again like basic, example:
if a == b
DoStuff()
end if
public static int function Foo()
int value = 0
return value
end function
Everything else should be as close to C# as possible for the
sake of compatibility assuming C# don't has other serious flaws
that would need to be fixed than. Curly braces and semicolons
is the thing VB people complain most and imho for a good reason.
If such a syntax would be possible I would try to learn about
compiler development and try to build a compiler. The reason why
I post here is I'm hoping somebody else likes the idea and helps
building such a compiler.
Regards,
stax
