This is a brief introduction to Lojban, a constructed human language. It has a very nice, fun, regular grammar that computers and humans alike can understand easily.
All Lojban words are either particles (tiny words that help the grammar) or verbs (which tell us how nouns relate).
A Lojban sentence consists of a main verb with a bunch of nouns plugged into it.
A Lojban verb definition looks like this:
| #include <iostream> | |
| #include "borrow_checker.hpp" | |
| int main() | |
| { | |
| auto i = 42; | |
| // borrow `i` under name `ref` | |
| borrow_var(ref, i) |
| { | |
| "presets": [ | |
| { | |
| "Name": "Major", | |
| "Value": "1;3;5;6;8;10;12", | |
| "Group": "Common" | |
| }, | |
| { | |
| "Name": "Minor", | |
| "Value": "1;3;4;6;8;9;11", |
| function varIntBytes(v) { | |
| const r = [v & 0x7f] | |
| while ((v >>= 7) > 0) { | |
| r.unshift(0x80 + (v & 0x7f)) | |
| } | |
| return r | |
| } |
