- You must have
cabalinstalled on your system
- Run
cabal buildto just build the executable - Run
cabal runto build and run the executable
after building and running the executable sucessfully, you can perform basic operations
We'll be havin 3 data types. We will not be dealing with strings.
- Boolean
- Integers
- Doubles
Supported Operations on Numbers(Ints and Doubles):
- Arithmetic Operations such as
+,-,/,%and** (Power) - Comparision Operations such as
<,<=,>,>=,==and/= - Assignment Operation
= - Negation Operation
-
We plan to add almost every operations and functions in GNU bc that work with the data types we are supporting and on top of that we'll be adding support for Boolean types with few essential operations defined for them. The operations that are parsed by our program as of now are :
||-> Logical OR&&-> Logical AND^-> Logical XOR~-> Logical NOT->-> Logical Imply<->-> Logical Double Imply
As of now, We are only able to parse the input we're provided from the user and generate the parse tree for it. It has most of the basic parsing components ready. It can't parse a function definition as of now but that ability will be added soon. Parsing Conditionals, Loops, also hasn't been added yet. I have planned to implement the basic building blocks at first and then move onto complex stuff so they are on hold until we have the basic interpreter ready.
- For parsing, parsec is being used
- For arbitrary precision calculation and representaion, We will most likely be using numbers
- Other libraries may also be used if needed.
-
Arbitrary precision calculation
-
Ability to define functions
-
Loops
-
Conditionals
-
Math functions provided by GNU bc and a few more if possible
Other feature are to be decided as we continue with the project. If something seems essential and worth adding, we'll be attempting to put those also. Open to suggestions as well.
