Pissfix 🚀

Pissfix is a blazingly fast 🚀 programming language that transpiles to a "interesting" and not well known programming language called "Postfix". Postfix is a stack-based language that uses reverse Polish notation to express arithmetic expressions. Pissfix allows you to write code in a more intuitive and readable way 💁‍♀️👌.

Pissfix is written in Rust 🦀, which is also blazing fast 🚀 and memory safe 🔒💾.
The transpilation time on a medium-sized program just takes a few microseconds 🚀🚀😱.
Pissfix is an amazing language ✨ with tons of upsides, such as:

• Easy to learn and use 🧾🔠
• Compatible with any platform that supports Postfix 💻🌎✅
• Powerful type system, supporting generics 🦾🍎🍐🤖
• Supports functions, anonymous functions, variables, loops, conditional statements and "dot chains" 🤯💭
• Has a rich set of built-in operators and functions 💰🅱
• Allows comments that carry over to postfix 💬➡️📝
• We do what's right¹ 😎👉🚀

Example

Here is an example of how to write a function that computes the factorial of a given number in Pissfix:

fun factorial(n: Int) -> Int {
    product = 1
    while n != 0 {
        product *= n # This does the thing
        n -= 1
    }
    product
}

The transpiled Postfix code would look like this:

:factorial(n :Int -> :Int) {
    1 product!
    {
        n 0 !=
        not breakif
        product n
        * # This does the thing
        product!
        n 1 -
        n!
    } loop
    product
} fun

As you can see, Pissfix code is much more readable and concise than Postfix code 😊.

Usage

To transpile a Pissfix file to a Postfix file, you can use the following command:

cargo run --release -- input.piss -o out.pf

Footnotes

1. Pissfix uses right-to-left associativity. This means that a - b + c is the same as a - (b + c), not (a - b) + c ↩
