Monkey Lang Interpreter - Rust Library Implementation

This is an interpreter for Monkey, a simple programming language designed for educational purposes. The Monkey language is dynamically typed and features a C-like syntax.

Note: This interpreter is intended to be used as an internal library for CLI (Clap) and Web/Svelte WebAssembly (WASM) applications, as well as GUI applications built with the Tauri framework.

Features

• Lexer: The interpreter includes a lexer that tokenizes the input Monkey code.
• Parser: The parser converts the tokens into an abstract syntax tree (AST).
• Interpreter: The interpreter traverses the AST and executes the Monkey code.
• REPL: The interpreter provides a Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL) for interactive code execution.
• Basic Data Types: Monkey supports basic data types such as integers, booleans, strings, arrays, and hash maps.
• Control Flow: Monkey provides if/else statements andwhile loops for control flow.
• Functions: Monkey supports defining and calling functions.
• Closures: Monkey supports closures, allowing functions to access variables from their surrounding scopes.
• Error Handling: The interpreter provides basic error handling and displays informative error messages.

Usage (WIP)

The Monkey Lang Interpreter can be used as an internal library for various platforms:

• CLI: You can integrate the interpreter into your command-line applications to execute Monkey code.
• Web (WASM + Svelte): The interpreter can be compiled to WebAssembly (WASM) and used in web applications built with Svelte.
• GUI (Tauri): The interpreter can be integrated into GUI applications using the Tauri framework for building cross-platform desktop apps.
