Oxy

About

• A toy language implemented as a learning exercise and kinda code along for an amazing book CraftingInterpreters

• It is a sweet spot between javascript/java/lua/ruby/python being dynamic and garbage collected and semantic features from all

• It contains two interpreters:

  • A Tree-walk interpreter implemented in Rust (named roxy)
  • A Bytecode interpreter implemented in C (named coxy)

  (Ah yes I know I should have given more thought while naming it)

Running the interpreters:

• Rust:

From the root of the project run:

cargo run -- <filename>

• C:

From the bytecode-interpreter/ dir run:

make compile
./coxy <filename>
