Lamb is a toy dynamically typed functional programming language
It's not meant for real-world use but for educational purposes on writing an interpreter with pattern matching in Haskell.
Features
- No re-assignment (i.e., once you bind a value, you can't re-assign it)
- Pattern matching:
f([]) -> "nothing". f([a]) -> one thing". - Imperative I/O
- Higher-order functions
- Lexical scope
Hello World!
From examples/helloworld.lamb:
hello() -> "hello, " + hello("world").
hello(object) -> object + "!".
putstrln(hello()).
See other examples in the examples directory.
