New Scripting Language on the Horizon: TrumpScript

Some Features

• No floating point numbers, only integers. America never does anything halfway.
• All numbers must be strictly greater than 1 million. The small stuff is inconsequential to us.
• There are no import statements allowed. All code has to be home-grown and American made.
• Instead of True and False, we have fact and lie.
• Only the most popular English words, Trump’s favorite words, and current politician names can be used as variable names.
• Error messages are mostly quotes directly taken from Trump himself.
• ...

I can't believe he came so far. My best argument has been: Even me with my poor English, without much practice, I could right away hold a Trump speech. No problem. At most I needed a couple of minutes to grab some pseudo-facts from the internet to pretend knowledge.
Seemingly this isn't argument against him.

It even has a GitHub page!

Haha I see what you did there :)

I thought of writing a simple "Hello World" program but was afraid I'd get the response:

You're FIRED!

The guy makes me cringe!.. Looking at the other side I cringe too though

Make that YUGE!

We need a faceoff between TrumpScript and ArnoldC!

 

[jedishrfu]

The TS program says: You're FIRED!

and the AS program responds: You're terminated

and so Arnold wins the presidency on the rebirther ticket.

Breaking news! The Turing test has been passed. We now officially have something that we cannot know is a human or a machine. We call it "Donald Trump". You can talk to him here: http://fusion.net/story/244366/donald-trump-markov-chain-bot/

It builds a firewall around your computer and won't let you in?

Huh. Just random Trump quotations. Nor ready for prime time, if you ask me.

Plus it tries to collect money from your bank account for doing so.

That's the point, though. It's indistinguishable from the real thing so it passes the Turing test.

Thanks for this post jtbell, I had never heard of ArnoldC! Hilarious!

To give due credit, I found out about ArnoldC in this thread, thanks to FactChecker and D H:
