PLambda
An early prototype of a workable version of JLambda for Python. To be used mainly as a part of the IOP imaude system.
JLambda and PLambda are essentially network command and control languages. JLambda for controlling Java processes, and PLambda for python processes. JLambda is over 14 years old, whereas PLambda is just a pup.
Note that Python is not Java so there will be some differences, but hopefully the spirit will shine through.
PLambda, like JLambda, is a fast, efficient, minimalistic, call-by-value, lexically scoped Lisp or Scheme like language with closures built upon the underlying data structures of the language it rests upon. The interpreter is implemented via CPS (continuation passing style).
Guide for JLambda Afficionados
Install
There is a pip package, but that will move along at a lazier pace than developing directly from the repository.
Dependencies
This master is currently using Python 3.7 but most recent Python 3 versions should work. Travis tests it on 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8. I make no effort to support Python 2, but there is an old branch called 2.7 which might serve your twisted purpose. You will need the antlr4 runtime:
Though this is done by doing make develop described next.
Develop
Checkout the repository and do:
To run the tests you can do:

Recipe to add an operator
Add it to the grammar plambda.antlr4.PLambda.g4
Process the grammar with make antlr4
