Cisp

A Common Lisp Interpreter Built in COBOL.

Overview

Purpose

This is a small project built by a student at the Recurse Center to express a love for COBOL and better understand it.

Due to COBOL's lack of functions and recursion, the recursion required for Lisp is built from the ground up using file processing. Also, due to the lack of a widely supported debugger, a system logger was also implemented.

Compatibility

Please note that Cisp is currently only actively developed for Windows. *Nix users may experience issues.

Functionality

All features are currently in development. This is a list of what is to come.

  • Representation of Symbols and Numbers Ongoing Development
  • Basic Arithmetic Ongoing Development
  • Flow-Control Statements Not Currently in Development
  • Lists Not Currently in Development

Notes

The README much like the entire project is in current development.
