0.5.6

New Features

• Arrays can be indexed with negative numbers, to count backwards from the end of the array (06b59fa)
• Added a new is operator for type checking (86afa55)
  • e.g. if (myValue is bool) print 'bool';
  • Valid type names are string, bool, number, array, object, function, regex and unknown
• Added an array.sort() method (a084958)
  • If the array contains only numbers, it will be sorted numerically. If it contains anything that isn't a number, all values are converted to strings before sorting

Bugfixes

• Implicitly creating an array containing an object now works (d0be3e4, 82d7722)
  • e.g. a[0].thing = 2 where a is not defined
• Array literals, object literals and function calls now copy primitives by value, instead of by reference (26c0305)
• Stop array.pop() and array.popfirst() panicking on empty arrays (b0ef491)
• num() now returns null instead of panicking if it can't parse a number (b0ef491)
• Stopped the cli panicking if it's run with no arguments (912ed03)
