Python implementation of Lox programming language
Project description
pylox is Python implementation of Lox programming language which is a demo language from [Crafting Interpreters](http://www.craftinginterpreters.com/) book by [Bob Nystrom](https://github.com/munificent).
I’m doing this because:
I want to learn about language design and implementation
I don’t want to just read the book or copy and paste the code from it and I want to do something else than C or Java
Python is my main language these days and I want to use something I’m most comfortable with
Maybe after Python version I decide to reimplement it (or make my own toy language) in Go. Or force myself to learn Rust which seems like a good idea.
Fun.
This is work in progress.
Requirements
Python 3.6 for no particular reasons except f-strings are used in few places. Other than that, it could easily be ported to even Python 2.7 (but I don’t plan to).
Run it
python3 -m pylox [script]
