monkey-rs 🐵

An interpreted, dynamically-typed, general purpose hobby programming language written in Rust.

Inspired by this tutorial.

Features:

1. Arithmetic and logical operators
2. Very basic IO

I am still thinking about how I want to implement arrays and maps.

I would like to be able to call functions from an array or map object like Python

Use:

Building the language from source requires a working rust toolchain installed. Check out the tutorial here to setup Rust and Cargo.

Right now the only way to use the language is to build the project using Cargo. This requires a working rust toolchain installed. Check out the tutorial here to setup Rust and Cargo.

1. Clone the source code:

git clone https://github.com/wzid/monkey-rs.git

2. Run with file or REPL mode

cargo run <filename>

cargo run

Language examples:

println("Salary calculator");

let name = input("Enter your name: ");

let hours_worked = input("Enter the amount of hours you work each day: ");

let days_worked = input("Enter the amount of days you work each week: ");

let hourly_wage = input("Enter your hourly pay: ");

let calculate_salary = fn(hours, days, wage) {
    hours * days * wage * 52
};

println(name, "your annual salary is", calculate_salary(hours_worked, days_worked, hourly_wage));
