The Schwift Programming Language

Schwift is an imperative programming language based on the fantastic show, Rick and Morty. It supports all of the classic language features required to elegantly build fantastic programs.

Variables

Schwift is a dynamically typed language:

>>> x squanch 10
>>> show me what you got x
10

>>> x squanch "Hello"
>>> show me what you got x
Hello

Lists

Schwift supports dynamically typed lists as a first-class type:

>>> x on a cob
>>> x assimilate 10
>>> x assimilate "hello"
>>> show me what you got x
[Int(10), Str("hello")]

Memory management

Schwift has manual memory management through the flexable squanch keyword:

>>> x squanch 10
>>> squanch 10
>>> show me what you got x
error: x is undefined

Calling Rust Functions

If you want your schwift programs to be blazingly fast ™, you really have to extend them with Rust functions. Your Rust code should look like this:

src/lib.rs

extern crate schwift;

use schwift::value::Value;
use schwift::error::{SwResult, ErrorKind};
use schwift::plugin_fn;

plugin_fn!(multiply_internal, multiply);

fn multiply_internal(args: &mut Vec<Value>) -> SwResult<Value> {
    if let Value::Int(x) = args[0] {
        if let Value::Int(y) = args[1] {
            return Ok(Value::new(x * y));
        }
    }

    Err(ErrorKind::UnexpectedType {
        expected: Type::List,
        actual: args[0].get_type(),
    })
}

Cargo.toml

[package]
name = "got_schwifty"
version = "0.1.0"
authors = ["Nate Mara <nathan.mara@kroger.com>"]

[dependencies]
schwift = "*"

[lib]
name = "gotshwifty"
crate-type = ["dylib"]

And your schwift should look like this:

load.y

microverse "./path/to/libgotschwifty.so" :<
	multiply()
>:

x squanch multiply(10, 20)

show me what you got x

This program should print 200.
