This is a starting point for Python solutions to the
“Build your own Interpreter” Challenge.
This challenge follows the book
Crafting Interpreters by Robert Nystrom.
In this challenge you’ll build an interpreter for
Lox, a simple
scripting language. Along the way, you’ll learn about tokenization, ASTs,
tree-walk interpreters and more.
Before starting this challenge, make sure you’ve read the “Welcome” part of the
book that contains these chapters:
These chapters don’t involve writing code, so they won’t be covered in this
challenge. This challenge will start from chapter 4,
Scanning.
Note: If you’re viewing this repo on GitHub, head over to
codecrafters.io to try the challenge.
The entry point for your program is in app/main.py. Study and uncomment the
relevant code, and push your changes to pass the first stage:
git commit -am "pass 1st stage" # any msg
git push origin master
Time to move on to the next stage!
Note: This section is for stages 2 and beyond.
python (3.12) installed locally./your_program.sh to run your program, which is implemented inapp/main.py.git push origin master to submit your solution
