help();

The LPL is just a simplified C++.
structure file
|- text file.fileGetContents(text file_path) = reads text from a file.
|- void file.filePutContents(text file_path, text file_contents) = writes text from a file.
|- void file.fileAddContents(text file_path, text append_contents) = appends text to a file.
structure convert
|- text convert.number_to_text(number num) = converts a number to text (123 -> "123").
|- number convert.text_to_number(text text) = converts a text to number ("123" -> 123).
|- symbol convert.number_to_symbol(number num) = converts a number to symbol by number code (97 -> 'a').
|- number convert.symbol_to_number(symbol sym) = converts a symbol to number by symbol code ('a' -> 97).
|- text convert.symbol_to_text(symbol sym) = converts a symbol to text ('a' -> "a").
structure os
|- text os.getPath() = get current directory.
|- list<text> os.listDir() = get list of directiores and files.
|- void os.deleteFile(text filename) = deletes file.
|- void os.deleteFolder(text foldername) = deletes directory.
|- void os.createFolder(text foldername) = creates directory.
|- void os.changeDir(text foldername) = creates directory.
|- void os.cmdCommand(text command) = runs a command line command (IMPORTANT! The "cd" command does not work, use os.changeDir).
structure ConsoleColor
|- number BLACK = 0
|- number BLUE = 1
|- number GREEN = 2
|- number CYAN = 3
|- number RED = 4
|- number MAGENTA = 5
|- number BROWN = 6
|- number LIGHTGRAY = 7
|- number DARKGRAY = 8
|- number LIGHTBLUE = 9
|- number LIGHTGREEN = 10
|- number LIGHTCYAN = 11
|- number LIGHTRED = 12
|- number LIGHTMAGENTA = 13
|- number YELLOW = 14
|- number WHITE = 15
text ask() = accepts text entered by the user.
list<text> explode(symbol separator, text text) = splits the text into list.
void setConsoleColor(number textColor, number backgroundColor = ConsoleColor.BLACK) = changes the color of the console.
number getCharCode() = waits for a key to be pressed and returns its code, just like _getch() does.
void help() = prints a list of methods and keywords to the console.
number getElementIndex(list<typename> l, typename e) = returns the index of an element in a list.
list<typename>::iterator listBegin(list<typename>& l) = returns a list iterator, like list.begin().
list<typename>::iterator listEnd(list<typename>& l) = returns a list iterator, like list.end().

-- 21 methods --

display ? = prints text to the console.
number = a variable type that stores in 32-bit a number from -2147483644 to 2147483648 if you add unsigned in front of it, it will also be from 0 to 4294967295.
text = a variable type that stores text, the text must be in double quotes ("Hello, world!").
symbol = a variable type that contains a single character is protected by apostrophes ('a').
list<typename> = a list of objects (variables), you can learn more about them as vector in C++: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/standard-library/vector-class?view=msvc-170 (IMPORTANT: do not use list.find(), list.begin() and list.end(), we recommend using a number getElementIndex(list<typename> l, typename e), list<typename>::iterator listBegin(list<typename>& l) and list<typename>::iterator listEnd(list<typename>& l)).
begin = opens a block of code.
end = closes a block of code.

-- 7 keywords --

number main() begin
	display "Hello, world!"
end
