# salo-lang
salo lang is a my first simple language writen in ruby and created only for educational purposes
I write It like a training for my future project.
The are a lot of things here are taken from ruby and scala.
Actually almost all values in **salo lang** is ruby primitives.
### About implementation
Grammar of this lang described in LALR.
~~It executes code using tree-walk interpreter via AST.~~
It compiles AST to own stack-based virtual machinde's bytecode and then run it.
No any optimizations apply neither at runtime or compile time yet.
Also, it have no bindings in scope so it behaves like python from this edge.
### Dependencies
- [ruby](https://github.com/ruby/ruby)
- [rly](https://github.com/farcaller/rly)
### How to run
Simply go to folder with this project and run
```
ruby src/main.rb
```
### Examples & Tests
Due of absence of documentation examples would be good way to learn a litle bit about this language.
You can find them in `tests` folder.
It's actually far away from complete and have many problems as you can see from list below
### Todo list
- [ ] Fix operator precedence
- [ ] Make modules more flexible
- [ ] Lambdas, arrays, booleans
- [ ] Default values in functions
- [x] Virtual Machine
- [ ] Documentanion
It would great if you help with some of these probles.
