LICP

====

LICP (Lambda calculus Intermediate language Compiler Program) is a compiler that compiles a simple low-level functional

programming language to C. Its purpose is to be an intermediate language for higher-level functional languages.

Available functions::

    Integer commands

    +/1+ - Addition

    -/1+ - Subtraction

    */1+ - Multiplication

    //1+ - Division

    =/2+ - Equality

    ≠/2+ - Inequality

    2+ - Less than

    ≤/2+ - Less than or equal

    >/2+ - Greater than

    ≥/2+ - Greater than or equal

    List commands

    list/0+ - Creates a list object: (list values...)

    get/2 - Subscript: (get list index)

    len/1 - Length: (len list)

    Lambda commands

    λ/2 - Lambda abstraction: (λ parameter-list body)

    call/2+ - Evaluate a lambda abstraction: (call lambda arguments...)

    Other commands

    print/1 - Print a number

    if/3 - If: (if cond then else)

    let/2 - Bind variables to values: (let ((var val)...) expr)

    ,/1+ - Execute all arguments, evaluates to the last argument
