hlang (the h language) is a revolutionary new use of WebAssembly that enables
single-paridigm programming without any pesky state or memory accessing. The
simplest program you can use in hlang is the h world program:
```
h
```
When run in [the hlang playground](https://h.christine.website/play), you can
see its output:
```
h
```
To get more output, separate multiple h's by spaces:
```
h h h h
```
This returns:
```
h
h
h
h
```
## Internationalization
For internationalization concerns, hlang also supports the Lojbanic h `'`. You can
mix h and `'` to your heart's content:
```
' h '
```
This returns:
```
'
h
'
```
Finally an easy solution to your pesky Lojban internationalization problems!
## Errors
For maximum understandability, compiler errors are provided in Lojban. For
example this error tells you that you have an invalid character at the first
character of the string:
```
h: gentoldra fi'o zvati fe li no
```
Here is an interlinear gloss of that error:
```
h: gentoldra fi'o zvati fe li no
grammar-wrong existing-at second-place use-number 0
```
And now you are fully fluent in hlang, the most exciting programming language
since sliced bread.
