Alox is a statically typed, interpreted programming language that aims to balance simplicity and power. It was created with the following principles in mind:

Variables are declared using the var keyword

var: String a = 2;

Alox supports two datatypes: Number and String

var: String name = "John"
var: Number age = 30

You can use if, else if, and else for conditional branching.

if(condition){
 //do something
}
else{
//do something

}

Alox offers both for and while loops.

for(var: Number i = 0; i<10; i = i +1 ){
      #code block
}

while(1){
    print 1;
}
    # code block

Define functions using the func keyword. You can specify parameters and return types.

fun add(var: Number x, var: Number y){
    return x + y
}
