Postrado is a joke programming language based on confusing statements made by E.L. Mark Postrado. It's similar to Signs

Commands

Sentence Meaning
And now it's time to pack everything up Starts the program.
Oh. And don't forget the. Print command. The text is printed in the Capital format due to Rede Globo Bold font making letters uppercase no matter what formating you do. Uppercase text is interpreted as literal text, with lower or alternate case text treated as variables.
Three, two, one Wait duration command.
Were here at Creates a function. To make a variable, use the command "Useable plastic bag" and enter your variable name. Functions look like this
Were here at Bahmas
£
[Code here]
£
Why? Because Condition command
I remember some memories with it Repeat following commands. It also functions the same way as Were here at command. To stop it, edit the second £ sign into a Why? Because command.
I think the bus is titled Similar to Python's input command, it also functions as the Oh. And don't forget the. command.
Everybody down the stairs Edits a variable.
Before I started editing videos on Comment, ignores following characters.

Errors

The interpreter can emit the following random errors:

Error Meaning
I don't exatly remember The interpreter only outputs the first line and outputs this after 5 seconds.
I forgot the "the" Any outputed "the" is removed and this error is outputed after the outputed code.
Damit Stops the program when ever it wants to.

Computational class

Using the repeat command (I remember some memories with it) as well as the conditional (Were here at) operating on a program counter variable, an unstructured machine can be emulated. In conjunction with variable editing, mathematical operators, and the conditional, increment and conditional decrement can be implemented. Assuming variables are unbounded, any Minsky machine can be translated to an equivalent Postrado program.

Examples

Hello world

And now it's time to pack everything up
Oh. And don't forget the. HELLO WORLD

Truth-machine

And now it's time to pack everything up
