+a simple c-like language with support for if/else-statements, while-loops and the standard arithmetic (+, -, /, *) and comparison expressions (<, >, <=, >=, ==, !=). also, post increase/decrease expressions (++, --) are supported. Assignments are allowed in expressions, but they are only allowed on the right side of arithmetic/comparision operators if they are put inside parenthesis
