Overview

Concepts:

• Primitives
  • u8, i32, f32, bool, char
  • lists, slice, fixed-length array builtin, matrices
• Control flow
  • for, while, break
• Structs & tuples
• Let bindings
• Ptr a
• Pattern matching
• ADTs
• Mutability
  • const by default?
• Functions
• Array syntax
  • ranges arr[1..], arr[..3]
  • index arr[4]
• Stdlib
  • string
  • vec/dynarray
  • hashtable
  • option/result

C-like with Roc syntax. Start with interpreter. Output C later down the track

let slice = &[u32];

[1,23,45,4,1]
let new_vec: Vec<i32> = iterator.iter_mut()
  -> map(|x| *x = 100 )        -- allocs?
  -> filter     -- allocs?
  -> filter     -- allocs?
  .collect()
