Interpreter

A command line interpreter is provided with eevo by default.¹

• Dependencies:
  • C99 compiler
  • libc: C standard library
  • GNU make: build system
  • xxd: build core.evo.h to include eevo core at compile time
• Optional:
  • libm (core/math.c): math library
  • libdl (core/io.c): for dynamic library loading
  • sed: construct amalgamated library files for distribution
  • markman: regenerate man pages from markdown
  • rlwrap (evo): make REPL more interactive with readline support

Modify config.mk to your liking, or leave as is for default Unix-like systems.

$ git clone https://github.com/eevolang/eevo && cd eevo
$ make
$ sudo make install

Library

eevo can also be statically embedded as a library in other C programs with almost zero dependencies. Simply drop eevo.c, eevo.h, core.evo.h, and any lib files into your project to use the necessary functions for your program.

eevo is unique from other functional languages since functions are modeled as records and serve as the central unit of abstraction.
