|

|

|

|
|
<p>Enigma consists of functions. Any file being parsed is a
|
||
|
|
function. Within functions there can be local variables. These variables
|
||
|
|
are to disappear when the function exits.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Functions have return values. These values can be determined by the
|
||
|
|
programmer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Within functions, there are commands. These commands constitute the very
|
||
|
|
base of Enigma. Commands can interact with built-in functions, meaning
|
||
|
|
that writing to and reading from files, calculating, as well as
|
||
|
|
manipulating strings and lists, is possible.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>There are no simple types. Enigma lies in the world of objects. Numbers,
|
||
|
|
strings, lists.. It's just objects. Also, all commands must end with a
|
||
|
|
semicolon<code>;</code>
