Gloop programming language

Do not use in production. Like seriously. I mean you can... but I wouldnt. At least not yet.

Gloop is a experiment in learning how interpreters, compilers and ultimately languages work.

This project should be used as a case study and not a implementable language. Follow for a journey in creating an interpreter. Updates will be provided below.

Testing

Run go test /{folder} to test the individual folder

You can also run sh ./test_runner.sh which will explore all folders and run the tests files if they exist.

Heavily inspired by Thorsten Ball's Writing an Interpreter in Go
