02 — Ask: have a conversation

A program that listens. ask reads what the user types and stores it in a name.

#Steps

1. Create greet.nme:

   ask name What is your name?
   show Hello name!
   

   copyrun it →

2. Run it and type a name when the program waits:

   nme run greet
   

   copy

   NME inserts the stored answer into the second sentence, so typing Mina prints Hello Mina!.

3. The same conversation works in Korean:

   이름을 물어봐 이름이 뭐예요?
   안녕하세요 이름! 말해줘
   

   copyrun it →

4. For the gentlest first input, an ordinary question is enough — NME infers the name from the question:

   What is your name?
   Hello name!
   

   copyrun it →

#Try it yourself

Ask for a city and show it in a sentence:

ask city Which city do you live in?
show I love city!

#What you learned

• ask name question stores the typed answer as name; 물어봐 is the Korean action.
• A known name is inserted into a later sentence automatically.
• An ordinary question like What is your name? also creates the name.
• show Hello name! prints Hello plus the stored value.
