LAU Syntax & Variables

LAU is a readable automation language. Unlike standard Lua, it uses specific keywords like varol and AND/OR logic.

Comments

Use comments to leave notes in your code. The system ignores these lines.

-- Single-line comment
--[[
    Multi-line
    comment block
]]

Variables (varol)

Variables store information. In LAU, every new variable must start with the varol keyword.

Basic Assignment

lau-compiler.exe

▶ RUN CODE

varol tomatoPrice = 2000
varol amountWanted = 20
varol totalPrice = tomatoPrice * amountWanted
print("20 Tomato Seeds will cost you:")
print(totalPrice)

OUTPUT:

20 Tomato Seeds will cost you: 40000

Multiple Assignment

lau-compiler.exe

▶ RUN CODE

varol crop = "Wheat"
varol wheatPrice = 20

print(crop + " costs " + wheatPrice)

OUTPUT:

Wheat costs 20

Character Restrictions

Turkish Characters (ö, ğ, ş, ç, ı, ü), Emojis, and Special Symbols are forbidden. Using them will replace your code with ? and cause a crash.

Operators

Math Operators

LAU supports standard math plus a unique square root operator.

Op	Action	Example	Result
+	Add / Join	"LAU " + 2	"LAU 2"
*	Multiply	3 * 4	12
^	Power	2 ^ 3	8
%	Modulo (Remainder)	10 % 3	1
#	Square Root	#16	4

Comparison Operators

These return a Boolean (true or false).

• == Equals
• ~= Not Equal
• > / < Greater / Less Than
• >= / <= Greater / Less or Equal

---

Logic & Short-Circuiting

LAU uses uppercase keywords for logical operations.

AND / OR Logic

if freeSpot AND hasSeeds == true then
    drone.plant(Enum.Seed.Wheat)
end

Default Values (Short-Circuit)

The OR operator is a powerful way to handle empty (null) data. It picks the first “True” value it finds.

Code

lau-compiler.exe

▶ RUN CODE

varol savedName = null
varol displayName = savedName OR "Guest"

print("User: " + displayName)

OUTPUT:

User: Guest

Tip

In LAU, everything is “True” except for false and null. Even the number 0 is considered true!
