An easy-to-learn, dynamic, interpreted, procedural programming language

Overview

Gen Programming Language

WARNING!! THIS LANGUAGE IS IN DEVELOPMENT. ANYTHING CAN CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT.

Gen is a dynamic, interpreted, procedural programming language.

See the documentation
日本語はこっちです。

Almost everything (for, if, and more) can be written in just one line. But it is pretty wordy, so it's also easy to learn.

TODO List

  • Built-in functions
  • Map (dictionary in Python)
  • Import other files
  • Reading files with extention .gen (meaning allowing multi-line statements)

Installation

git clone https://github.com/Gen-lang/Gen.git
cd PyGen/pygen

Then you can run Makefile:

make install

Then you can use gen:

gen some_file.gen

Hello World

println("Hello World")

Example

For examples, see examples directory.

# Fizzbuzz

for fizzbuzz = 0 through 51 then
	if fizzbuzz % 3 == 0 and fizzbuzz % 5 == 0 then
		println("fizzbuzz")
		continue
	elseif fizzbuzz % 3 == 0 then
		println("fizz")
		continue
	elseif fizzbuzz % 5 == 0 then
		println("buzz")
		continue
	end
end

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Especially, I need an assist on Makefile to make Gen available to Windows users.

Reports

If you found a bug, please open a new issue and paste the error message and your code that caused the bug.

Credits

I learned a lot from this series and T# programming language.

  • Make another gen implementation(Optional)

    Make another gen implementation(Optional)

    I think it will be good to have another gen implementation in other languages since the pygen implementation can be slow and it is also memory inefficient. I do think it needs to have a VM(virtual machine, python, java and other more languages use this), JIT(just in time) compiler or other more like AOT compiler(ahead of time). I think a VM is enough for portability since JIT compilers can compile to the target architectures that they only can support. This is only optional since performance and memory usage sometimes don't matter. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Suggestions for the import feature

    Suggestions for the import feature

    My suggestions for the import feature:

    • Make it a function like:
    import("library file")
    

    or just a keyword:

    import "library file"
    
    • Make import return a map of the library
    • "library file" should be the path to the file

    That's all :)))

  • Library readline not available for Windows

    Library readline not available for Windows

    So I tested pygen on Windows. I needed to install readline in order to make gen.exe work. When installing readline on Windows using:

    pip install readline
    

    It does not work. One of the errors:

    error: this module is not meant to work on Windows
    

    That's all.

  • Building for Windows (Needs some fix, See comments below)

    Building for Windows (Needs some fix, See comments below)

    The issue is there are no builds for Windows. You can do that with simply this:

    pip install pyinstaller
    pyinstaller ./main.py --onefile
    COPY ./dist/main.exe ./pygen.exe
    

    Python's CLI is the same as Python Linux build CLI. Pyinstaller needs to be in windows in order to build it to .EXE file. So it's up to you now on how to build it on windows while on Linux. You need to add it on PATH environment variable though if you want to access with only "pygen" and not the whole path to the application, which I don't know how.

    I'm not an expert on Windows so I might be wrong.

    (Nice programming language btw)

  • Iterate an array

    Iterate an array

    I just wanted to ask you guys if creating another loop just for arrays:

    iterate arr as i then
        println(i)
    end
    

    Or should I just create the in keyword?

    for i in arr then
        println(i)
    end

  • About the import function

    About the import function

    Currently, this is how to use the import function:

    import("examples/bubble_sort.gen")
    
    arr = bubble_sort([12, 43, 23, 44])
    println(arr)
    

    But would you prefer something like this?

    imported = import("examples/bubble_sort.gen")
    
    arr = (imported@"bubble_sort")([12, 43, 23, 44])
    # or if possible, I may make it like this:
    # arr = [email protected]_sort([12, 43, 23, 44])
    println(arr)
    

    I'm still experimenting with the latter.

  • Gen extend standard library

    Gen extend standard library

    The gen standard library is a bit small since it only has limited features. I think it will be good for it to have file I/O. You should also store file I/O functions in a "file" global map.

    That's all.

  • Implementation in Crystal lang

    Implementation in Crystal lang

    I do think Gen written in Python is slow, so I think creating an implementation of Gen written in Crystal is nice because it is fast, and its syntax is similar to Ruby (which I don't know much tough).
