krun filename.scm

Functionalities & Features

Some features of our Scheme dialect are:

• Use [] instead of () for indicating functions
• Use eof as the mark of the end of a function
• Use , instead of . to describe pairs and lists
• Use {} instead of () to hold pair and list items
• Use //, /* and */ instead of ;, #| and |# to comment
• let completes the job of both let and letrec in original Scheme
• For define, let and let*, only letters are allowed (no special symbols, e.g. +, -)

Below is a list of the functionalities implemented so far:

• Arithmetic expressions: +, -, x, ÷
• Boolean expressions
• Conditional expressions
• Valuable assignment: define, set!
• Lambda function: lambda
• File I/O: read, display
• Local Binding: let, let*
• Procedure Expressions: lambda
• Pair and List: list, cons, car, cdr
• Continuation: call/cc
• eqv?, boolean?, integer?, string?, list?, null?

For more details, please refer to the test cases provided in tests/.
