|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
lerner
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
Lerner is a stand-alone conversational program that can learn by
|
||
|
|
building a vocabulary. It supports a simple grammatical syntax
|
||
|
|
containing a subject, verb and predicate. The predicate can contain
|
||
|
|
an optional adjective. The syntax is as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[article] subject verb [article] [adjective] predicate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each field must consist of a single word. The articles, "a", "an" and
|
||
|
|
"the" are optional. Statements can be made questions by adding a "?"
|
||
|
|
at the end. Questions can also start with the words "who", "what",
|
||
|
|
"does", "do", "is" and "are". The question mark is optional when
|
||
|
|
starting a question with these words.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Words must be spelled with the same capitalization as they were
|
||
|
|
defined. One exception is at the beginning of a sentence where the
|
||
|
|
first letter can be capitalized even if the word was defined in
|
||
|
|
lower-case.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lerner supports the following commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
vocab [word] - Print the words I know
|
||
|
|
dump - Print the words as hex codes
|
||
|
|
forget - Remove a word from memory
|
||
|
|
save - Save the words to EEPROM
|
||
|
|
reset - Reset the word table
|
||
|
|
basic - Reset the word table to a basic list
|
||
|
|
history - Print the short term memory
|
||
|
|
goodbye - Exit the program
|
||
|
|
help - Print this list of commands
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lerner normally saves its vocabulary to the EEPROM. However, the save
|
||
|
|
function has been disabled in this version.
