Programs using Bhailang

Bhailang is a language which has taken the social media in India by storm. According to its documentation the developers of this language has described it as

Bhailang is dynamically typed toy programming language, based on an inside joke, written in Typescript.

I have written two programs using this language the first one prints table of 3 and the next one explains the syntax for nested loops and ladder if statements in the language.

Program for Table of 3

hi bhai

  bhai ye hai a = 3;
  bhai ye hai b = 0;

  jab tak bhai (b < 10) {
    b += 1;
    bol bhai a," * ", b, " = ", a*b  ;
  }

bye bhai

Output of Program


Program for nested loops and ladder if


hi bhai
  //variable declaration
  bhai ye hai a = 0;
  bhai ye hai b = 0;
  bhai ye hai t = 0;

 // Outer while loop
  jab tak bhai (a < 3)
  {
  t = a+1;
  //if statement
  agar bhai (t == 1) 
  { 
    bol bhai "Pehli";
  }
  //else if statement
  nahi to bhai (t == 2)
  { 
    bol bhai "Doosri";
  }
  //else statement
  warna bhai 
  { 
    bol bhai "Teesri";
  }
  bol bhai " baar Bahar" ;
  bhai ye hai b = 0;
  // inner loop
    jab tak bhai (b <= a)
    {
      t = b+1;
      bol bhai  b+1," baar Andar";
      b+=1;
    }
    a += 1;
  }
bye bhai

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Output program 2

It's an inside joke of course. But inside of what? What is the real world language this appeals to? Hindi? Or none?

Actually, bhai in hindia means bro, and the language can be read in english like

starting: hello bro
ending: bye bro

variable declaration: bro this is a = 10;

The special thing about this is, reading it feels like talking rather than coding, that's why it's so popular...

Thanks for the translation. Reminds me of an unix filter called "jive" that translated text (not code) into jive (a particular flavour ot US street language).
