Tutorial/Examples

This is just a project for learning various languages and their syntax and tools, over the years I have seen various questions about these things on Stack Overflow and Reddit and I thought I'd try my hand at generating a bunch of examples. This readme-file is a mess and the languages and install instructions are added as I add more languages. In the future I will format it better but I'm still thinking of code examples I can make.

Install guide Kali Linux

Note: these installation packages will most likely work in Debian and Ubuntu as well.

If you use Debian, Ubuntu, Kali and so on full install:
$ sudo apt install kali-linux-large

In that case: nasm, go, gcc, js, java, python3, perl, php and ruby might be pre-installed.
Otherwise find these packages.

These might need to be installed:
Install Ada: $ sudo apt install gnat-10
Install Haskell: $ sudo apt install ghc
Install Common Lisp: $ sudo apt install clisp
Install Lua: $ sudo apt install lua5.4
Install Scala: $ sudo apt install scala
Install Smalltalk: $ sudo apt install gnu-smalltalk
Install Rust: $ sudo apt install rustc
Install Basic256: $ sudo apt install basic256
Install Nim: $ sudo apt install nim
Install Go: $ sudo apt install golang
Install Fortran: $ sudo apt install gfortran
Install Free Pascal: $ sudo apt install fp-compiler-3.2.0
Install Julia: $ sudo apt install julia

For the rust rand program to compile/work you might need:
$ sudo apt install librust-rand-dev libssl-dev
$ cargo install cargo-edit

Add /home/<youruser>/.cargo.bin to path:
$ nano /home/<youruser>/.bashrc

ADD this line to the end of the file:
export PATH="/home/<youruser>/.cargo/bin:$PATH"

Start PowerShell by typing: $ pwsh

Interactive shells

C#, like Python offers an interactive shell. You start it by typing csharp in your console, just like idle or python3

Feel free to comment or add suggestions for more languages.
