Scheme interpreter written in pure functional Scala, inspired by Write yourself a Scheme (Haskell) and Functional programming in Scala. The interpreter implements a subset of R5RS.
The project is built using sbt which can be installed by following the instructions
here.
The interpreter can be run either in interactive mode (REPL) or non-interactive (on a file).
To run the REPL type sbt run and to run on a file type sbt "run filename.scm".
Currently the tests are quite limited, there are unit tests for the Env, Eval and SchemeParser
classes. Run the tests with sbt test.
Currently the parser doesn't handle the positions of parsing errors correctly, the position is always set to the first character even if the error is actually later in the code, e.g.:
(+ 1 (..))
^
[1:1] -> regex: [a-zA-Z]
I'd also like to improve the testing by adding at least:
unit tests for the base Parser itself as well as some
integration tests (scheme source files that are verified to produce the correct output).
