A new programming language that enforces memory safety.

Yudi's Programming Language

Yudi's Programming Language (YCPL) is a new programming language that enforces memory safety and type safety. The specification of the language is defined under spec/specs.pdf. This branch builds an interpreter that interprets the program.

TODO-List

This project is still under development and not all function modules defined in specification coherce with the implementation. Below is the todo-list of the project.

• Compiler front-end.
• Language interpreter implementation.
• Memory management.
• Library. (ip)
• Operation overloading.
• Rework error message format (err.cpp / err.hpp)
• Rework generics.
• Testing
  • Class.
  • Tagged Union.

File and Directory Layout

• spec/: Directory that includes specification.
  • specs.tex: Source LaTeX code for specification.
  • specs.pdf: Compiled readable speicification file.
• src/: Directory that includes source code.
• sample/: Directory that includes sample programs.
  • factorial.yc: factorial from 1 to 10.
  • cast.yc: conversion between basic types.
  • copy_move.yc: illustration difference between copy and move.
  • union.yc: demo of tagged union.
• input.yc: Sample program used for debugging.
• Makefile
• LICENSE
• README.md: Documentation.

Installation

The interpreter requires any form of a C++ compiler. It has been tested under WSL, Arch Linux and Mac OS.

To compile the project
