MOUSE-2002
Mouse-2002 my own extension of the Mouse-83 programming language originally described in the book Mouse: A Language for Microcomputers by Peter Grogono in 1983 [2]. It includes a number of extensions to Mouse-83:- "Else" operator ( | )
- Global variables
- Change-sign operator ( _ )
- Floating-point support (all numbers are floating-point)
- Function operator ( & ) - allows the language to be extended indefinitely
- Arrays
- File I/O
- Interactive mode
Documentation
Interpreters
- C version (Updated 4/1/07)
- Windows binary (Updated 4/1/07)
mouse <filename>where <filename> is the file name of the Mouse program. If no file extension is specified in the file name, an extension of .mou is assumed.
Alternatively, Mouse-2002 can be run in "interactive" mode. Do do this, type:
mousefrom the command line. You can then enter Mouse statements interactively. (For example: 2 3 + ! ). To exit the program, type &quit or &exit .
