A simple evaluator for a C like language, currently a work in progress.

Built to learn Haskell and the process of writing a lexer, parser and evaluator.

A recursive descent parser is used for parsing.

Currently in the very early stages of development.

Running

First build sea

$ stack build

You can write a .sea program and evaluate, lex or parse it:

# Run the evaluator
$ stack run sea tests/evaluator/2.sea
# Run the lexer
$ stack run sea tests/evaluator/2.sea --lexer
# Run the parser
$ stack run sea tests/evaluator/2.sea --parser

Or you can run the interactive REPL:

$ stack run sea repl
# Sea> 1 + 2
# 3
# Sea> str n = "Hello Sea" n
# Hello Sea
# Sea> :q

Testing

$ ./test.sh

Examples

Below is an example .sea program to demonstrate the syntax. This will be updated as the parser and evaluator progress.

;; sea only supports a single main {} function currently
fn main {} (
  num n = 3 * 4
  str s = "Hello world"
  str ss = s + " again"
  if {n > 10} (
    ret ss
  ) else (
    ret s
  )
)
