If you answered yes, then I have the language for you. + +While wandering the internet to find the most obscure and fun open source languages, I came across ArnoldC. ArnoldC is an imperative programming language where the basic keywords are replaced with quotes from various Arnold Schwarzenegger movies. + +For this tutorial, I'll be using a Debian-based operating system with Terminator and the Vim editor. While you follow this tutorial, I would highly recommend rewatching some older Schwarzenegger films just for fun! + +### Install ArnoldC + +ArnoldC is hosted in [GitHub][2]. Before starting, I suggest creating a directory to hold your new project so it won't get lost. Below are my commands to get ArnoldC on your computer. + + +``` + + +$ mkdir arnoldc +$ cd arnoldc/ +/arnoldc$ wget +\--2022-01-16 14:11:18--   +Resolving lhartikk.github.io (lhartikk.github.io)... \ +185.199.108.153, 185.199.109.153, 185.199.110.153, ... +Connecting to lhartikk.github.io (lhartikk.github.io)\ +|185.199.108.153|:80... connected. +HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK +Length: 12958233 (12M) [application/java-archive] +Saving to: ‘ArnoldC.jar’ + +ArnoldC.jar                             100% + +``` + +### Short keyword overview + +First, I'll explain some of the keywords you'll need to build an app. Keep in mind that all of these keywords need to be in all caps when writing your application. + +Printing strings or variables: `TALK TO THE HAND` +Example: `TALK TO THE HAND "hello there"` + +Creating a variable: `GET TO THE CHOPPER` +Example: `GET TO THE CHOPPER var1` + +Setting the variable: `HERE IS MY INVITATION` +Example (in pattern format): + + +``` + + +GET TO THE CHOPPER var1 +HERE IS MY INVITATION value1 + +``` + +Once you've finished with the assigned variable, the next line is `ENOUGH TALK`. + +False: `I LIED` +True: `NO PROBLEMO` +Return: `I'LL BE BACK` + +These are some of my favorite keywords from the complete list, but you can always consult the ArnoldC wiki for more. + +### Hello world + +I'll start with a small "hello world" app to show the ArnoldC language in use. + +First, use the `echo` command to output the string "hello world" into a hello file: + + +``` + + +$echo -e "IT'S SHOWTIME\nTALK TO THE HAND \"hello world\ +"\nYOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED" > hello.arnoldc + +``` + +Next, use `java -jar` to create the app using ArnoldC: `$java -jar ArnoldC.jar hello.arnoldc` + +Then use the java command to run the program: `$java hello` + +Here's the output: + + +``` +hello world +``` + +If you followed these instructions, congratulations on your first under-3-minute app in a completely frivolous language. + +### Let's count + +In this next example, I'll have my app count to 20. The odd patterning makes this program pretty interesting. + +First, create the file using Vim so you can just start writing the app: `arnoldc$ vi count.arnoldc` + +Create the `begin main` with `IT'S SHOWTIME`. + +Next, set up the declared variable: `HEY CHRISTMAS TREE isLessThan20` + +Then, set the initial value of the variable to true, making that required: `YOU SET US UP @NO PROBLEMO` + +Repeat these steps with the variable n and make the first set value 0: + + +``` + + +HEY CHRISTMAS TREE n +YOU SET US UP 0 + +``` + +From here, move into a while loop with the first variable: `STICK AROUND isLessThan20` + +Assign the variable to look at: `GET TO THE CHOPPER n` + +Then set the value to plus one: + + +``` + + +HERE IS MY INVITATION n +GET UP 1 + +``` + +Moving on to ending the assigned variable: `ENOUGH TALK` + +Print the number: `TALK TO THE HAND n` + +Look at the assigned variable again, then set the variable to 20: + + +``` + + +GET TO THE CHOPPER isLessThan20 +HERE IS MY INVITATION 20 + +``` + +Check to see if the number is less than 20: `LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET n` + +Moving on to ending the assigned variable, end the while loop, then terminate the program: + + +``` + + +ENOUGH TALK +CHILL +YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED + +``` + +In the end, you should have this: + + +``` + + +IT'S SHOWTIME +HEY CHRISTMAS TREE isLessThan20 +YOU SET US UP @NO PROBLEMO +HEY CHRISTMAS TREE n +YOU SET US UP 0 +STICK AROUND isLessThan20 +GET TO THE CHOPPER n +HERE IS MY INVITATION n +GET UP 1 +ENOUGH TALK +TALK TO THE HAND n +GET TO THE CHOPPER isLessThan20 +HERE IS MY INVITATION 20 +LET OFF SOME STEAM BENNET n +ENOUGH TALK +CHILL +YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED + +``` + +Now you just need to set the jar package up to run: `/arnoldc$ java -jar ArnoldC.jar count.arnoldc` + +Then run your code: + + +``` + + +/arnoldc$ java count +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +8 +9 +10 +11 +12 +13 +14 +15 +16 +17 +18 +19 +20 + +``` + +If you attempted this tutorial, congratulations again! You now have a small counter. + +### Afterthoughts + +This just-for-fun open source language is great for general hilarity, but it helps if you know a small amount of Java-based languages. I don't, so it took a bit more time for me to figure out how to use the language. At least I learned something while having fun! I hope you enjoy experimenting with ArnoldC and making something that's amusing to you. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://opensource.com/article/22/2/arnoldc-create-app + +作者：[Jessica Cherry][a] +选题：[lujun9972][b] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://opensource.com/users/cherrybomb +[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 +[1]: https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/luis-reyes-mtorq9gffog-unsplash.jpg?itok=pnfxHBsU (gray scale photo of dumbbell weights for strength training) +[2]: https://github.com/lhartikk/ArnoldC
