README.md

Lamb is a toy dynamically typed functional programming language

It's not meant for real-world use but for educational purposes on writing an interpreter with pattern matching in Haskell.

Features

  • No re-assignment (i.e., once you bind a value, you can't re-assign it)
  • Pattern matching: f([]) -> "nothing". f([a]) -> one thing".
  • Imperative I/O
  • Higher-order functions
  • Lexical scope

Hello World!

From examples/helloworld.lamb:

hello() -> "hello, " + hello("world").
hello(object) -> object + "!".

putstrln(hello()).

See other examples in the examples directory.
