• Quick summary: Simple is a programming language i am working on for educational purpose
• Version : 1.0.0

Building the interpreter

You can build the interpreter for your platform. intall and setup the go programming language. run:

go get github.com/ademuanthony/simple 
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ademuanthony/simple 
go build 
go install

You can also download the windows version from https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WWv2DD7Dwb4Rj4GHDhgIGG4bLsSdg5gb/view?usp=sharing and and the location to enviroment veriable

How to run your code

Open yous command line, type

simple

and press enter

You can write your code directly in the simple console and have evaluated on the fly

Or you can run your .sim file by typing

simply run fileName.sim

Examples

• Reduce function

var reduce = fn(arr, initial, f){
    var iter = fn(arr, result){
        if (len(arr) == 0) {
            result
        } else {
            iter(rest(arr), f(result, first(arr)));
        }
    };
    iter(arr, initial);
};

var sum = fn(arr){
    reduce(arr, 0, fn(initial, el) { initial + el });
};

println(sum([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]));

• Simple Interest

printLn("Please enter the principal"); 

var p = parseInt(readLn());

printLn("Please enter the interest rate");
var r = parseInt(readLn());

printLn("Please enter the time");
var t = parseInt(readLn());

var simepleInterest = fn(p, t, r) {
    return (p*t*r)/100
}

var i = simepleInterest(p, t, r);

print("The interest is ", i);

printLn("Thanks");

• Factorial

var factorial = fn(n){
    if(n == 1){
        n
    }else{
        n * factorial(n-1)
    }
}

printLn("The factorial of", 20, "is", factorial(20));
