This repo contains source code for a small programming language. The language is dynamically typed and supports procedural paradygm. The builtin types are booleans, ints, doubles, strings and arrays. There is no a builtin support for compound types, e.g. structs, but this functionality can be implemented via closures, functions are first class objects in Berta language.
Some examples of programming in repl:
>> var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>> var sum = fun(ar, n){
var s = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < n; i = i + 1){
s = s + array[i]
}
return s;
}
>> sum(array, 5)
15
>> var makePerson = fun(name, age){
var dispatch = fun(field){
if (field == "name"){
return name
} else {
return age
}
}
return dispatch;
}
>> var man = makePerson("Bruce, 34)
>> man("name")
"Bruce"
>> man("age")
34
To install the interpreter clone the repository and invoke go install command:
