# KScript
A pipelined, fully functional programming language that compiles to JavaScript
```js
; let Fibonacci = (a = 0, b = 1) => {
if (_ == 0) {
| a + b
} else {
| _ - 1
Fibonacci(b, a + b)
}
}
| 50
Fibonacci()
> console.log
```
KScript uses a flowing stack that "falls" through the program.
This:
```js
| X
Thing1
Thing2
Thing3(a)
```
Becomes this:
```js
X
|> Thing1
|> Thing2
|> Thing3(a)
```
Compiles to this:
```js
let _;
_ = X
_ = Thing1(_)
_ = Thing2(_)
_ = Thing3(a)(_)
```
### Operators
```js
-> Set + Eval
| -> Set
: -> Eval
; ->
x
_ = x(_)
| x
_ = x
: x
x(_)
; x
x
```
### Scoping
This:
```js
{
a
b
}
```
Compiles to this:
```js
_ = ( _ => {
_ = a(_)
_ = b(_)
return _
})(_)
```
### Escaped scope
```js
| 1
{
Add(2)
}
// : 3
| 1
; {
Add(2)
}
// : 1
// And you can set a variable to the value of a scope
| 1
; let x = ({
Add(2)
})(_)
// : 1
// x: 3
```
### Functions and Floating Scopes
```js
// Function
; let Add = (x) => {
x +
}
// Floating scope
; let Add2 = {
Add(2)
}
| 1
Add2
Add(3)
// : 6
```
