| 22:35:36 |  pentadyne | ah, just one for a language I came up with 2 days ago thats similar to lua but with some changes |
| 22:36:54 | Levy (Elara) | so eager eval with dynamic types then |
| 22:38:03 | pentadyne | maybe? |
| 22:40:54 | pentadyne | I'm still working on parsing the syntax |
| 22:41:11 | Levy (Elara) | or you could write a type checker later on |
| 22:41:26 | Levy (Elara) | inference of basic types is relatively easy |
| 22:41:33 | Levy (Elara) | polymorphic is a bit harder |
| 22:42:04 | Levy (Elara) | but you can add contracts (literally if statements) which tell you what type it is within a certain scope |

The transport of the shipment item has started in the country of the sender |
| 22:44:51 | pentadyne | my goal is to have the language be able to transpile into lua with few negative effects on performance |
| 22:45:42 |  Lurkki | i heard haskell is good for generating syntax trees |
| 22:46:10 | pentadyne | I knew that going into the project but haskell sounded scary so I used python and its not very fun |
| 22:47:17 | Lurkki | python bad |
| 22:47:48 | pentadyne | I plan on building a C interpreter for it after I do it in python |
| 22:48:40 | pentadyne | as in, an interpreter in C |

i heard haskell is good for generating syntax trees It's what it does |

I knew that going into the project but haskell sounded scary so I used python and its not very fun Use haskell, it gives you better tools |
| 22:51:44 | Levy (Elara) | you can even have Haskell emit the C interpreter |
| 22:52:12 | pentadyne | I've never used it before |
| 22:52:35 | Levy (Elara) | Even better |
| 22:53:02 | pentadyne | recomendations on an ide? |

| 22:53:39 | Levy (Elara) | In reply to @pentadyne:matrix.org
recomendations on an ide? I use vim |
| 22:54:02 | Levy (Elara) | use ghcid or you can try leksah but I'm not sure how it is anymore |
| 22:54:32 | Levy (Elara) | That tutorial covers parsing and many other things in implementing your own language |
| 22:56:55 | pentadyne | interesting |
| 22:57:54 | Levy (Elara) | learn haskell while learning scheme |
| 22:58:02 | Levy (Elara) | scheme isn't too far from lua |
