About
The Language
Arturo is a modern programming language, vaguely inspired by various other ones - including but not limited to Rebol, Forth, Ruby, Haskell, D, SmallTalk, Tcl and Lisp.
Arturo is a modern programming language, vaguely inspired by various other ones - including but not limited to Rebol, Forth, Ruby, Haskell, D, SmallTalk, Tcl and Lisp.
The language has been designed following some very simple and straightforward principles:
- Code is just a list of words and symbols
- Words and symbols within a block are interpreted - when needed - according to the context
- No reserved words or keywords - look for them as hard as you can; there are absolutely none
print "Hello world!"
loop 1..10 'x [
if? even? x -> print [x "is even"]
else -> print [x "is odd"]
]The Compiler
The main compiler is implemented in Nim/C as a Bytecode interpreter / Stack-based VM and should run in most architectures.
The main goals are: performance, energy-efficiency and portability. (With that exact order)
