Aussie++ is a spoof programming language inspired by a Reddit thread, whose syntax and keywords are based on Australian slang. There is also a mode where its keywords are expressed in "upside-down" (down-under) characters in Unicode. "Boomerangs" (angle brackets <>
) are used instead of curly braces. The time function in one of its standard libraries always returns Melbourne time.
Programs in Aussie++ always begin with G'DAY MATE!
and end with CHEERS C***!
. Initializing variables is done with the I RECKON
keyword, like I RECKON x = 5;
. "If" statements begin with YA RECKON
. Loops can be done with "walkabout" constructs like I RECKON I'LL HAVE A WALKABOUT UNTIL
.
