For more detailed installation instructions, see the Installation Guide.

Your First SAPL Program

Let's create a simple "Hello, World!" program in SAPL. Create a file named hello.sapl with the following content:

# የመጀመሪያ ፕሮግራም

አሳይ("ሰላም ዓለም!")

To run this program, use the SAPL interpreter:

You should see the output:

Using the SAPL REPL

SAPL comes with an interactive REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) that allows you to write and execute code line by line. To start the REPL, simply run:

You'll see a prompt where you can enter SAPL code:

>>> አሳይ("ሰላም ዓለም!")
ሰላም ዓለም!
>>> ቁጥር = 10
>>> ሌላ_ቁጥር = 5
>>> አሳይ(ቁጥር + ሌላ_ቁጥር)
15

The REPL is a great way to experiment with SAPL and test small code snippets.

Next Steps
