0.5.5

New Features

• Adds variable reassignment. Variables can be reassigned using the update keyword.
• Adds note shifting functionality. Note shifting is a kind of variable reassignment that shifts a note left or right by a number of semitones.

Examples:

The snippet below plays E5 for 1 beat.

start
save mynote = E4
update mynote = E5
play mynote for 1b
finish

The example program below uses the note shifting functionality and plays a major scale starting at Bb2.

start
  chunk majorscale using startnote
    save mynote = startnote
    block
    play mynote for 1b
    update mynote rshift 2
    endblock loop for 3
    update mynote lshift 1
    block
    play mynote for 1b
    update mynote rshift 2
    endblock loop for 4
    update mynote lshift 1
    play mynote for 1b
  endchunk
  save startnote = Bb2
  run majorscale using startnote with sound piano 
finish
