Arbol
This article is about the programming language. For information on the Chile de Arbol pepper, see Chile de árbol.
Arbol is a programming language which has been primarily developed for use in Genetic Programming experiments. It is a functional programming language inspired by the ideas of other small and esoteric languages.
An Arbol program looks like:
// Simple I/O ((Z a)b) = (((a b)a)I1) // some input (((ZZ a)b)c) = ((a b)a); O1 = c // and output main = ((Z ZZ) Z)
The first version of the interpreter is written in OCaml following the implementation of the Spineless Tagless G-Machine.
Each program structure is compiled to intermediate bytecode for execution.
