A simple Lisp interpreter for educational purposes.

Installation and usage

Clone the repository and install:

git clone git@github.com:dimtion/llisp.git
cd llisp
pip install .

You can launch a REPL with the following command line:

Some examples commands:

Prompt a variable:

>>> 5
<<< 5

>>> (+ 2 3)
<<< 5

Variable declaration and assignation:

>>> (var n 10)
<<< n
>>> (* 5 n)
<<< 50

Function declaration and function call:

>>> (def (sum x y) (+ x y))
<<< sum
>>> (sum 33 17)
<<< 50

List management:

>>> (var l (list 1 2 3))
<<< l
>>> l
<<< [(AtomTypes.NUM) 1, (AtomTypes.NUM) 2, (AtomTypes.NUM) 3]
>>> (pop l)
<<< [(AtomTypes.NUM) 2, (AtomTypes.NUM) 3]
>>> (push 0 l)
<<< [(AtomTypes.NUM) 0, (AtomTypes.NUM) 1, (AtomTypes.NUM) 2, (AtomTypes.NUM) 3]
>>> (el l)
<<< 1

Features

Those are the features that are currently implemented, more to come in the future:

• REPL and file source code input
• Arithmetic operators (int, floats)
• Variable declaration and assignation
• Branching with conditionals if
• Function declaration and call
• Recursive functions
• List manipulation
• String manipulation
• Standard library
