Ego

A programming language for no purpose.

Aims to:

• Have a selected, unextensible set of types:
  • Integer (of any precision): TypeID int, underlying type bigint
  • Float (64bit double-precision): TypeID float, underlying type number
  • String: TypeID string, underlying type string
  • Boolean: TypeID bool, underlying type boolean
  • Null: TypeID null, underlying type null
  • Hash Table: TypeID scope, underlying type Scope
  • List: TypeID list, underlying type Scope
  • Executable: TypeID exec, underlying type Executable
  • Callable: TypeID */callable, underlying type AsyncFunction
• Have a simplistic syntax (Only identifiers and function calls; no literals, keywords or anything else)
• Implement runtime "macro"s, which allows developers to arrange execution order and time

It's a script language and is expected to run very slow.

Spec

TODO

Standard Lib

❓ Planning; ⚠️ Working On It; ✅ Done

• ✅ Constants - TRUE, FALSE and NULL
• ✅ Preload - Functions for importing other libs
• ✅ Scope - Hash table
• ⚠️ Util - Miscalleneous
• ✅ Var - Declare, set and compare variables
• ⚠️ Num - Basic rational calculation
• ❓ Expr - Operations on expressions, for building runtime "macro"s
• ❓ Flow - Control the program flow
• ❓ Iter - Tools for iterables, e.g. map, reduce, filter, etc
• ❓ Async - Async utility
• ❓ Math - Identical to JavaScript Math utility
• ⚠️ Str - String tools
• ❓ Node - Interact with Node.js
