WORK IN PROGRESS - WHENEVER I FEEL LIKE IT
I originally started this project in Rust.
I figured the best way to learn a new language would be to implement a SQL database. Also that it would be the best way to learn how to implement a SQL database.
This repo's in Julia which is both one of the most powerful dynamic languags out there right now, and a joy to work in!
This is mostly an educational exercise for myself, but I will try to make the code as readable as I can and include lots of explanatory comments, both for the betterment of futureme and others.
A database involves understanding IO (read/write to/from disk), memory management, networking (server/client), string parsing (implement SQL interpreter), testing (you must test your database fool!), and organizing a large codebase.
So it's a pretty decent way to master a new language in one go.
No. I am mostly following the design of the database described in the book Database Design and Implementation, which includes sample code in Java.
Yes.
