2. FAQ

Why Use X³?

The reason to use X³ as a language is a bit unconventional because we don’t actually know its purpose! It’s just a language made for a fun school project.

Why Can't We Use More Than One Parameter Inside a Function in X³?

That’s because I (the developer) was too lazy to do all the work of adding more parameters :P

Why Is the Syntax Updated Every Day?

That’s because I currently have a lot of free time since my exams are over, so I can update it 24/7! :>

Why Is the Syntax Divided Into Pieces Instead of Just Putting Everything in One Place?

Because that would require a lot of hard work, and since this language was made as a project, I’m not trying to code a complex system. A guide will be published on this website soon so anyone can learn the basics properly without struggling to learn it from reverse-engineering.

Why Is the Language Open-Source?

Anyone can access the code, change it, or even re-publish it with modifications. The reason I made it open-source is that everyone should have the right to learn from the code and build upon it.

How Many People Helped in Making This Language?

Uhhh, I am the only one who developed this language. :)

Why Is the Language So Poorly Optimized?

Don’t ask. ;-;
