### A recursive descent parser for Ludus
### First, some mutual recursion helpers
(defn unreachable
"A function that errors out if called."
[&] (error "reached the unreachable"))
(defmacro declare
"Forward-declares a function name, so that it can be called in a mutually recursive manner."
[& names]
(def bindings @[])
(loop [name :in names]
(def binding ~(var ,name unreachable))
(array/push bindings binding))
~(upscope ,;bindings))
(defmacro defrec
"Defines a function depended on by another function, that has been forward `declare`d."
[name & forms]
(if-not (dyn name) (error "recursive functions must be declared before they are defined"))
~(set ,name (defn ,name ,;forms)))
### Next: a data structure for a parser
(defn- new-parser [tokens]
@{
:tokens (tokens :tokens)
:ast @[]
:current 0
:errors @[]
})
### and some helper functions for interfacing with that data structure
(defn- current [parser]
(def curr (get (parser :tokens) (parser :current)))
(if (not curr)
(error "no more tokens")
curr))
(defn- peek [parser] (get (parser :tokens) (inc (parser :current))))
