bc
A better basic calculator. Like the original bc, but with a better
prompt. Work in progress. Very incapable right now.
What?
The idea behind bc is to display partial results to the right of the
cursor in yellow while we type. A little example can be found in the video
above. Minor syntactic cleanups have been developed as well (e.g. no local
keyword). We have infinite precision integers and double precision floats.
TODO
- A good readline copy (haskeline is sadly out of the question for this project)
- Comment parsing
- Closures that can modify the parent environment (but do away with the
localkeyword).
