Cherry Lisp
/\
| \ A tiny, curried and lazy Lisp.
@ @
Curried? Lazy?
Currying consists in convert one function that takes multiple arguments into multiple functions that each take a single argument.
WIP
Lazyness is when an expression is only evaluated when is necessary.
Features
- Interpreted
- Dynamic typed
- Functional (impure)
- Curried
- Lazy evaluation
- It's a Lisp
Inspiration
This language is being created for fun.
It takes inspiration of some features of Haskell (like currification and lazy evaluation) and the syntax of Lisp.
