Toy Lisp in V

Work in Progress

This is just a quick little project to get a working toy lisp in V!

This lisp is interpreted, it would be awesome to get a lisp->V transpiler but currently closures arent really implemented in V.

This should be a fun experiment, I hope to benchmark how this compares to other implementations of LISP in C, C++, and Rust.

Features:

• ✔️ Numbers and basic operations on numbers
• ✔️ Booleans and basic operations on booleans
• ✔️ Lambdas
• 🚧 Strings
• 🚧 Good quoting
• 🚧 Quasiquoting

Project Organization

Pretty simple, first we tokenize the input string into a tree of tokens, then we evaluate that tree of tokens. parser.v parses/tokenizes the input string and eval.v interprets the tree and executes some code in V accordingly.

Get Started

v run .

Compiles and runs everything in main. Currently this just starts a REPL.

v test .

Runs all tests
