Katana

======

Katana is a newly-designed light-weight programming language and also a tree data structure expression. It aims to keep the parser simple, and highly inspired S-Expression, M-Expression and JSON format.

The parser, encoder and runner in this repository is still in early development and not ready for use.

Example

-------

The language itself is look like this, somewhat looks like a mixture of LISP and JavaScript:

```

$(

  function(factorial, (x), $(

    =(c, 1),

    =(y, 1),

    while(<=(@(c), @(x)), $(

      =(y, *(@(y), @(c))),

      =(c, +(@(c), 1))

    )),

    return(@(y))

  )),

  print(Please enter the number),

  readNumber(number),

  =(number, 10),

  =(result, factorial(@(number))),

  print(format(factorial of %d: %d, @(number), @(result)))

)

```

This expression can be used to represent a tree structure too:

```

root(

  child(

    another child,

    hello!

  ),

  3.1415,

  false,

  nil

)

```
