This is similar to this question. What I am asking though, is which LOLCODE interpreter should I pick based on these criteria:
1) Works well and is up-to-date
2) Ease of install - I've looked before and couldn't find one which I found easy to install.
Please feel free to give your suggestions and opinions, I haven't looked in a number of months and am curious as to what people think, and I look forward to learning it.
EDIT: I am just doing this to learn LOLCODE. Why? Because I can and I think it would be fun to declare variables with ICANHAZ and end programs with KTHXBAI. I'm really just curious. I would really prefer that it be as close to spec as possible. I don't care if it's open or closed source and it can run in either Windows (my desktop) or Linux (my laptop). Hope this helps!
EDIT 2: I have downloaded the LOLCODE compiler available here. However, I am having trouble figuring out some of the instructions so I am still open to any suggestions for any other interpreters/compilers.
Basically, LOLCODE language emerged as a funny experiment and it's based on an Internet meme called “lolcat”. This meme is an image macro that usually features a cat and some funny text. The text often contains intentional grammar mistakes — it is called “lolspeak” (sometimes, “catspeak”).
To declare a variable, LOLCODE provides a keyword “I HAS A” which is followed by the variable name.
I highly recommend repl.it. It's online, but available for download. It also has other languages like Emoticon, Python, JavaScript and many others. Here's a complete list...
- Ruby
- Python
- Lua
- Scheme
- QBasic
- Forth
- Javascript
- Javascript.next
- Move
- Kaffeine
- CoffeeScript
- Emoticon
- Brainf***
- LOLCODE
- Unlambda
- Bloop
Unlike the name implies, it has a scripting box right next to the REPL. A perfect setup I believe.
My friend created once LOLCODE interpreter for some project on our Univ. It requires Ruby with some gems, but I don't remember exactly which. I can update answer later when I have time to check it by myself. Here is link to github repository.
