Cont

Cont is a compiled statically-typed concatenative programming language, that has elements of OOP, is written in Python and is inspired by Porth.

Where did the name come from

From word concatinative. How have I come up with that specific word? I just mixed beginning of that word and tried to come up with something, that sounds good.

Quick Start

$ python3 -V
 Python >=3.10

$ git clone https://github.com/farkon00/cont.git
$ cd cont

# Install fasm with your package manager, nodejs and wabt (https://github.com/WebAssembly/wabt) for testing wasm
$ sudo apt install fasm nodejs wabt
$ python3 -m pip install pytest
$ pytest test.py

$ python3 cont.py <source_code>.cn -r

Examples

You can find examples on how to use the language in the tests or examples folders or in the standard library source, which can be found in the std directory.

Please note that tests are contained in one file, so the only part of the test file, which contains cont code is the first one, before the first occurence of a line that contains a single colon symbol and nothing else.
