[Request For Opinion] Virtual Machine Development #2

Open CunningBard opened 1 year ago

The Bisaya Language will have its Byte Code so that A The Program written on it can be Exported as a Binary, Since The Parser Takes time to convert Source To Ast, So I'm Thinking of turning that AST into a Binary Representation so that we can use Virtual Machine

I'll be asking for an Opinion on how to format the byte code. We can take inspiration from Python's Bytecode

Since I'm thinking of doing it kinda stack-based The basic commands will be,

Load Global
Load Const
Load Local
Set Global
Set Local
Copy
Swap
Rotate
Move Program Counter
Math Operations(Add, Sub,, Mul, Div)
Comparison Operations(Eq, Neq, Gt, GtEq...)

Load and Set are basically accessing the value of a variable
