back on here, you know what that means! loaded up the finkpad for the first time in a few days cause i must prepare the racket post
ngl, using drracket cause no proper text editor setup so far and like
this kinda reminds me of using slime on common lisp
which is good, that was the good parts about that language, you could just mess with the running program from the repl, thats a really cool workflow
so if the language is otherwise also more well thought out and less messy, this might actually work out
what the fuck conventions is this talking about ive never seen this before
Following the usual conventions, * in a grammar means zero or more repetitions of the preceding element, + means one or more repetitions of the preceding element, and {} groups a sequence as an element for repetition.
and heres the real reason we had to go back to lisps, polish notation (putting the mathematical operator before the values meaning mathematical operations use the same syntax as any other function) my beloved
