Dolittle (programming language)

<h2 id="features">Features</h2>
<p>The language uses Japanese keywords, although Korean and English-based versions of the language also exist. The syntax is based on Japanese word order (Subject Object Verb), which is unnatural in English. The language is prototype-based and object-oriented. 
</p><p>The language has native facilities for <a href="/facts/Turtle_graphics/3UBFgoIE">Turtle graphics</a>, including easy-to-use <a href="/facts/Collision_detection/kXkE9WXv">collision detection</a>, and musical output using the Sakura library and notation to generate Midi. The language has been ported to <a href="/facts/Arduino/Ah1eKzyS">Arduino</a> for robotic systems. 
</p><p>The language is implemented in <a href="/facts/Java_(programming_language)/9ScgFyAL">Java</a>, and so runs on a range of systems. It is distributed for free, and in an online version <a href="http://dolittle.eplang.jp/web/applet.html">[3]</a>

<h2 id="example-program">Example program</h2>
<p>This example creates two turtles and two buttons for controlling them. 
</p>
 かめ太＝タートル！作る。
 カメ＝タートル！　作る。
 時計＝タイマー！　作る　0.1秒　間隔　500回　回数。 時計！　「かめ太！　１０　歩く」　実行。
 左＝ボタン！”左”作る。 左：動作＝「かめ太！　２０　左回り」。
 右＝ボタン！”右”作る。 右：動作＝「かめ太！　１０　右回り」。
