Hans;
No, I am making my own language right now using Bison/Flex, but its syntax is what is expected as standard. For example, (x, y) |-> x + y evaluates to (lambda (x y) (+ x y)). But is possible to have more complicated things, like functionals with variable arguments:
(x, y, ...) (z, ...) |-> [x, y, z]
--> (lambda (x . y) (lambda z (list x y z)))
Or calling functions:
f(a, b)(c, d)
--> ((f a b) c d)
Got it. Seems like you are aiming for something with Scheme's "purity" (for lack of a better word) and yet with ChucK's "read left to right, like a novel" style instead of "read inside to outside, which will come down to right to left, most of the time, unless we need multiple lines in which case you better have a good editor". If so; that should be good.
I have just started, but it moves fast forward.
Send me a note when you have a twitter or RSS feed or similar for this.
