Lexical Structure

A program is UTF-8 text made of these kinds of tokens:

Whitespace and line breaks

Spaces, tabs and line breaks only separate tokens. There is no statement terminator: statements are usually written one per line, but two statements on the same line also work. Indentation is not significant; blocks are marked with { }. The semicolon ; is used only inside a साठी loop header.

चल x = 1   छापा(x)
    छापा(x + 1)

1
2

Comments

// starts a comment that runs to the end of the line. There are no multi-line comments.

// ही पूर्ण ओळ टिप्पणी आहे
छापा("टिप्पणी नाही") // ओळीच्या शेवटी टिप्पणी

टिप्पणी नाही

Invalid characters

Any character that is not part of a token, string or comment is a lexical error:
