BQN implementation#619
base:master
Are you sure you want to change the base?

TODO: add varargs support to dissoc and assoc
The MAL suggestion is to use a regex for tokenizing. But that's boring(and BQN doesn't have regex support yet). So I wrote a recursivetokenizer, but now self-hosting tokenizes long enough pieces of code tocause a stack overflow. So rewrite as a loop instead.

Hello@dancek sorry for the very slow reply (I've been unable to work on this project for the past couple of years but I'm am able to again). If you're still interested in getting this merged upstream I would ask that you do the following:
- Rebase the code onto the current HEAD
- The recommended process has changed slightly: the eval_ast is no longer seperate from eval. It would be good if you could update to follow the new structure.
- Add your implementation to
IMPLS.ymland make sure that the CI tests all pass for your implementation.
Glad to hear from you! Thanks for the pointers. It may take me a while but I do intend to finish this PR. |
This is an implementation inBQN, a modern array programming language. The code is idiomatic where possible but sometimes overly verbose. Also, parts of the MAL guide forced a non-array-y implementation – but I still followed the guide.
I didn't implement optional functionality; specifically
with-metawould be quite annoying to add due to all data types and every match expression needing to be changed accordingly. The language doesn't have builtin support for properties, hashmaps or such.CBQN is currently the main implementation of the language, and it's the only one supported as documented in README. Adapting to another implementation would be very simple, though, as the
_while_2-modifier could be implemented in a line of BQN and the terminal goodies are not strictly necessary.
