Go ahead and use COBOL - this should better fit your needs ;-).

Seriously - I doubt you will ever do a parser. And the syntax of the
examples is are "fucked up":

if A inside interval 128-144

Why is "128-144" not an expression but a range here? Why do things to be
parsed as expressen "a minus b" and in other cases as "range from a to
b"? This is just illogical.

On the other hand:

if(A>=128 && A<=144)

What is "fucked up" here? There is no doubt about the exact meaning and
no context specific syntax.

And why is "if A bigger then B" better than "if A > B"? What's the
problem with comparison operators like ">" or "<" or ">="?
