Basic Lisp interpreter with GC

By Ondrej Bilek for MI-RUN

This is an interpreter for basic subset of LISP. For supported syntax see testInput. This interpreter has simulated memory with max object count set to 256. It implements basic mark and sweep GC. GC is triggered when OOM or after hitting the GCThreshold.

Build

Interpreter is written in Go and you will need latest Go installed. Do not clone the repository into your GOPATH.

git clone https://github.com/bilcus/lisp-interpreter.git
cd lisp-interpreter
make build

Run

There are two modes:

Usage:
	lisp-interpreter <command> [arguments]

The commands are:
	repl	start lisp repl
	input	interpret text file

The arguments are:
	-d	Debug GC print

Test

Feel free to use testInput and testGC to test the implementation. Enabled debug print to see GC runs.
