INFO: currently only lexing is implemented, you shouldn't use this language 💀

Learning and applying concepts from the building compilers class in go (building an interpreter (soph) for my own programming language, teolang). The interpreter does not use any external dependencies.

requires git and go

git clone https://github.com/xNaCly/tiny-interpreter.git
# this will start the repl:
go run .

git clone https://github.com/xNaCly/tiny-interpreter.git
# this will start the repl:
go build -o soph

The interpreter supports a sophisticated scripting language called the teolang (file ending *.teo)

To run the interpreter in read eval print line mode, simply invoke it by calling the built binary or following the steps above and running it using go run ..

To feed the interpreter a file to execute, simply call the interpreter with the file to run as an argument:

soph file.teo

To view the help invoke the interpreter with either the -h or the --help flag:

soph -h
soph --help
go run . -h
go run . -help

This readme will probably not be as up to date as the above command. Run the executable and take a look at the help output for more info.

Take a look at the *.teo files in the /examples directory. To run an example, run the following command:

sophia hello_world.teo
