So, this is one of the many ways in which using is
to denote a poetic literal turns out to have been a horrible mistake, because you're absolutely right - once the parser sees My world is
it consumes the rest of the line as poetic literal digits and there's no way to use an expression as part of the assignment.
What I should have done was use a keyword such as like
to prefix a poetic literals - although I also like the idea of using punctuation to denote the end of a literal; a single point .
is used as a decimal separator but no reason that other punctuation marks couldn't indicate the end of a poetic literal expression.
My world is nothing
initialises my_world to 0
My world is nothing without your love
- subtraction expression
My world is like a big scary hamster
- initialise my_world to 1357
This would also mean you could use poetic literals in comparisons:
If the moon is like a crazy diamond
It'd be a breaking change, but it's probably time for Rockstar 2.0 anyway... π€π½
