A toy language with a small 8-bit toy vm.
Currently the language is very limited, it's only handles byte as variable type. There are no void functions, no stdin/stdout, or any other io, no heap.
func main()
v = asd(3)
return 5 + v
end
func asd(a)
return a * 2
end
The compiler is written in scala. Most of the techniques are probably terrible, but it was fun to play around with.
The VM is very basic too. Byte-by-byte interpreter, using one stack, no registers, no heap. Currently has problems with multiplication due to bytes want to become ints, I think.
If you want to try it out from some crazy reasons:
- clone the repo
- run
make - for tests:
make test - compile & run program:
