# Golem

Golem is a statically typed, object-oriented programming language.

# Example

```rust

using core

func fib(n: int) -> int {

	if n < 2 {

		return n

	}

	return fib(n-2) + fib(n-1)

}

let t0 = clock()

let mut i = 0

while i < 5 {

	println(fib(28))

	i := i + 1

}

let elapsed = clock() - t0

println("Elapsed: $elapsed")

```

# Features

- Easily readable and learnable

- **Normal** object-oriented features (classes, method calls, etc.)

- Immutablitiy of everything by default

- Explicit mutable declaration

- Statically, strong-typed

- Automatic type inference

- **NULL** is not possible to create or use

- Option types

- Fast, garbage collected bytecode VM

# Installing

Golem is written in C99, and has been tested to run on Linux and Windows.

A Makefile is used to build the compiler.

```sh

$ make

$ golem your/file/here.gs

```

Use `make DEBUG=1` to generate the debugger.

To generate the immediate representation tool, run `make ir`.

More features can be enabled/disabled in the Makefile.
