# Linkage
> [!NOTE]
> You are on the `main` C branch.
> For the Rust rewrite see the [`rust`](https://github.com/DoubleDotStudios/linkage/tree/rust) branch.
Linkage is a next generation programming language that allows for the use of other languages' features.
It has easy to use syntax and a simple compiler.
---
## Compilation
Compilation using Linkage is simple.
```console
llsc file/to/compile.lk
```
Then the compiled file can be run.
```console
./executable_name
```
## Syntax
Linkage's syntax is as follows:
### The Main Function
```
# main.lk
fn main (argc: num, argv: arr): int {
return argc # argc can be replaced with other integers
}
```
### Variables
```
;foo = 32 # variable
;;bar = 16 # constant
;baz: str = "Hello, World!" # typed variable
;;buz: arr = [1, 2, 3] # typed constant
```
### Reassignment
```
foo = bar
foo += 2 # foo = foo + 2
foo *= 3 # foo = foo * 3
foo /= 3 # foo = foo / 3
foo -= 2 # foo = foo - 2
foo ^= 2 # foo = foo ^ 2
foo `= 2 # foo = foo ` 2
```
### Binary Operations
```
foo + bar # + operator used for addition
foo - bar # - operator used for subtraction
foo / bar # / operator used for division
foo * bar # * operator used for multiplication
foo ^ bar # ^ operator used for powers
foo ` bar # ` operator used for roots
```
### Unary Operators
```
-foo # negative foo
foo-- # decrement foo
foo++ # increment foo
foo^^ # square foo
foo`` # square root foo
```
