  1. The Varphi Language Standard

Head Directions

In Varphi, head movement directions are represented using uppercase letters:

  1. L : Move left

  2. R : Move right

The characters "l" and "r" (lowercase "L" and "R") are not interpreted as "left" and "right" by the lexer, and will result in a syntax error.
