#The Q programming language

General-purpose toy programming language for Unix-like systems.

Disclaimer: Highly work in progress, breaking changes may happen.

#Build status

• Linux (x86_64):

#Installation

Dependencies:

• C11 compiler
• QBE
• Gas compatiable assembler and a linker C compiler is required to build programs right now.

$ make

#Example

pub fn main(): u8 = {
	printf("%d\n", fib(10))
	return 0
}
fn printf(fmt: *u8, i: i32)

fn fib(n: i32): i32 =
	if (n <= 1) n else fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)

// -> 55

This example lives in examples/fib.q. Use ./qlcc -R examples/fib.q to compile and execute it.

$ ./qlcc -R examples/fib.q
55

#Contributing

While Q is still young and there are not much easy areas to work into, but still, any contributions are welcome!
