Versions

The language has a version, which goes up whenever its word table changes. This book was checked against version 2; its tutorial chapters were written for version 2. When the two differ, every page says so, and the reference pages (the word table, the limits, what isn't in the language yet) stay current, because they are made from the language itself.

The language's versions #

Version 2, 11 November 2026: paint, and the words that read the resident's own home: coins, house, storage, materials and world-time. A form that only works something out answers its value: (+ 2 3) answers 5.
Version 1, 11 November 2026: The word table: the home's words that change the house (roof, floor, window-box, room, build-up, hang-lights, porch, chimney, the house's shape, place and move), defobject for a toy, defdance for a dance, design for a pixel design, and the language's own names, tests, sums, text, lists, maps and functions. A toy's own words: say, put!, state, refuse and its maker's colours.
