QuantumC

Basic Syntax

Math

Note that ?= means any number of quesiton marks charecter logic operator equals so ?= means += or -=… In QC there are various binary math operators. Examples are:

Operator	Usage	Effect
’+’	L + R	Addition
’-‘	L - R	Subtraction
‘*’	L * R	Multiplication
’/’	L / R	Division
‘**’	L ** R	Power
’%’	L % R	Modulo
’?=’	L ?= R	Combinational

Effects:

+: Addition: 5 + 2 = 7;
-: Subtraction: 5 - 2 = 3;
*: Multiplication: 5 * 2 = 10;
/: Division: 5 / 2 = 2.5;
**: Power: 5 ** 2 = 25;
%: Modulo: 5 % 2 = 1;
?=: Combinational expresion. a ?= x is equal to a = a ? x;

Modulo returns the remainder of a division.

Boiler Plate

Function syntax will be coverd later, but the boilerplate for Quantum C is simple.

int main() {
    // Code Goes Here
}

No includes, no nothing.

Variables

Variables in Quantum C are declared as follows:

type name = value;
// OR
type name;

The datatypes are string, char, int, float, double, bool, and qbool, with the modifiers const, long, and short. Example:

int main() {
    string StringEx = "This is a string"; // Strings are a list of characters
    char CharExNewline = '\n'; // Chard are a single charecter, 4 digit unicode, or escape sequence
    bool BoolEx = true; // Booleans are true or false
    qbool QboolEx = both; // QBools are qtrue qfalse both or none
    int Num = 123456789; // ints are any 32 bit whole number (any number between -2147483648 and 2147483647)
    float FloatPi = 3.141592f; // floats are a 32 bit floating point number (7 digits of persision.)
    double DoublePi = 3.141592653589793; // doubles are 64 bit floating point numbers (14 digits of persision.)
    // MODIFIERS
    const double Pi = 3.141592653; // Const means that a variables value cannot be changed
    long int LINT = 9223372036854775807; // Long can be used on double and int and doubles the numbers size
    short int SHINT = 32767; // Short affects int and halfs its size
}

Console Output

The main way to output to the console in Quantum C is std::qout.

Example:

std::qout << "Hello, World" << '\n';
