The Zia project aims to develop a programming language that can be used to program the itself. //! Instead of storing the source code as plain text and editing the raw text (which can easily break //! the program), the runtime environment of the interpreter (the `Context`) can be saved to disk and //! used in other programs. All the programming is done using an interactive shell such as //! [IZia](https://github.com/Charles-Johnson/izia). The commands sent are interpreted based on the //! `Context`. They are used to incrementally modify, test and debug the `Context`. //! //! Expressions for Zia commands represent a binary tree where parentheses group a pair of expressions //! and a space separates a pair of expressions. For example `"(ll lr) (rl rr)"` represents a perfect binary tree of height 2 with leaves `"ll"`, `"lr"`, `"rl"`, `"rr"` going from left to right. //! //! The leaves of the tree can be any unicode string without spaces or parentheses. These symbols may //! be recognised by the intepreter as concepts or if not used to label new concepts. //! //! Currently, only the lowest-level functionality has been implemented. It's important that programs //! are represented consistently and transparently within the `Context` in order to achieve a //! self-describing system. The syntax shown below may appear awkward but more convenient syntax will //! be possible once more functionality is added. For example, the need to group pairs of expressions //! in parentheses will be alleviated by functionality to set the relative precedence and associativity //! of concepts. //! //! So far there are 4 built-in concepts. A new `Context` labels these with the symbols, `"label_of"`, `"->"`, `":="`, `"let"`, but the labels can be changed to different symbols (e.g. for different languages or disciplines). //! //! # Examples //! //! ``` //! extern crate zia; //! use zia::{Context, ContextMaker, Execute, ZiaError}; //! //! // Construct a new `Context` using the `new` method of the `ContextMaker` trait //! let mut context = Context::new(); //! //! // Specify the rule that the concept "a" reduces to concept "b" //! context.execute("let (a (-> b))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (a ->)) ->"), "b"); //! //! // Change the rule so that concept "a" instead reduces to concept "c" //! context.execute("let (a (-> c))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (a ->)) ->"), "c"); //! //! // Change the rule so "a" doesn't reduce to anything //! context.execute("let (a (-> a))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (a ->)) ->"), "a"); //! //! // Try to specify a rule that already exists //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (a (-> a))"), ZiaError::RedundantReduction.to_string()); //! context.execute("let (a (-> b))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (a (-> b))"), ZiaError::RedundantReduction.to_string()); //! //! // Specify the composition of "c" //! context.execute("let(c (:= (a b)))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (c :=)) ->"), "a b"); //! //! // Print the label of the expansion of a concept with no composition //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (a :=)) ->"), "a"); //! //! // Relabel "b" to "e" //! context.execute("let (e (:= b))"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (c :=)) ->"), "a e"); //! assert_eq!(context.execute("(label_of (c ->)) ->"), "e e"); //! //! // Try to specify the rule to reduce a concept whose composition reduces to something else //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (c (-> f))"), ZiaError::MultipleReductionPaths.to_string()); //! //! // Try to specify the composition of a concept in terms of itself //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (i (:= (i j)))"), ZiaError::InfiniteDefinition.to_string()); //! //! // Try to specify the reduction of concept in terms of itself //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (i (-> (i j)))"), ZiaError::ExpandingReduction.to_string()); //! //! // Try to specify the composition of a concept in terms of something that reduces to itself //! assert_eq!(context.execute("let (e (:= (a d)))"), ZiaError::ExpandingReduction.to_string()); //! ``` /// Traits for adding concepts to the context. mod adding; /// Abstract syntax tree.
