Hello! I'm LunaStev, the developer of Wave. I'm very excited to release the v0.0.5 pre-beta version. I'm very excited to share the 5th version of Wave.

In this version, we have added a while statement.

✅ Added Features

🔁 Loops: Full Support for while Statements

• Basic while loops

• Nested while loops

• Variable declaration and initialization inside loops

• Loop termination condition handling (supports comparison operators like <=, <, ==, etc.)

• print and println functions work inside loops

🧨 Control Flow

• Support for break statements

• Allows breaking out of loops in the middle

• Works correctly even inside nested loops

• (⏳ Next version: continue support planned)

🧠 Variable Handling

• Fully correct local variable scoping (e.g., a new j is created in each loop)

• Supports var declarations (must specify types like i32, u32, etc.)

• Allows variable reassignment (handles patterns like i = i + 1)
