Overview

Welcome to Yaksha an offside-rule based language (Python inspired) that compiles to C99 with Lisp based macros.

Examples

Offside Rule (Python inspired) Syntax

# Example Yaksha Code
def main() -> int:
    println("Hello World")
    return 0
# return can be omitted
def main() -> int: 0

Compile time macros (YakshaLisp)

# ╔═╗┌─┐┌┬┐┌─┐┬┬  ┌─┐  ╔╦╗┬┌┬┐┌─┐

macros!{
    (defun to_fb (n) (+ (if (== n 1) "" " ") (cond
        ((== 0 (modulo n 15)) "FizzBuzz")
        ((== 0 (modulo n 3)) "Fizz")
        ((== 0 (modulo n 5)) "Buzz")
        (true (to_string n))
        )))
    (defun fizzbuzz () (list (yk_create_token YK_TOKEN_STRING (reduce + (map to_fb (range 1 101))))))
    (yk_register {dsl fizzbuzz fizzbuzz})
}

def main() -> int:
    println(fizzbuzz!{})
    0
