# SeaScript

SeaScript is a simple, typeless programming language made in C.

SeaScript is designed to be fast and reliable while maintaining the capabilities of a high-level language.

# Example Program

example.ssc:

    function wait(seconds) {

        decl start = time(); // UNIX time

        while ((time() - start) < seconds) {}

    }

    wait(10);

    print("Waited 10 seconds");

To run this code:

    ./SeaScript.exe example.ssc

You can also generate a bytecode file like this:

    ./SeaScript.exe example.ssc --preserve

This will create a file `example.ssb` storing the bytecode which can be executed directly:

    ./SeaScript.exe example.ssb

   Which is faster as it doesn't have to recompile the source code each time you wish to run it.

# Flags

- `--version` - Shows the current SeaScript version

- `--visualize-tokens` - Visualizes the token stream generated by SeaScript

- `--parser-print` - Pretty prints the output generated by the parser

- `--view` - Used to view the instructions from a bytecode file

- `--preserve` - Preserves the bytecode generated by SeaScript onto a file which can be executed

- `--benchmark` - Benchmark Seascript code

# Build

To build this project make sure you have GCC installed, afterwards just run:

```

make

```
