# Change Log
|
||||
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. This change log follows the conventions of [keepachangelog.com](http://keepachangelog.com/).

|
||||
## [0.3.0] - 2023-04-10
|
||||
|
||||
### Changed
|
||||
|
||||
- Added property lists in the exact format used by Lisp 1.5;
|
||||
- Added `ASSOC`, `EFFACE`, `MAPLIST`, `PROG`, and other functions;
|
||||
- Where there are both interpreted (`EXPR`) and Clojure (`SUBR`) implementations of the same function, the `EXPR` is preferred (it is planned to make this configurable if/when there is a working compiler);
|
||||
- More error messages/diagnostics are now printed in Old English (it is planned to implement internationalisation so that you can switch to messages you actually understand);
|
||||
- Documentation improvements.

same bahaviour - except as documented below.

### BUT WHY?!!?!
|
||||
|
||||
Because.
|
||||
|
||||
Because Lisp is the only computer language worth learning, and if a thing
|
||||
is worth learning, it's worth learning properly; which means going back to
|
||||
the beginning and trying to understand that.
|
||||
|

Because there is, so far as I know, no working implementation of Lisp 1.5
|
||||
for modern machines.

||||
|
||||
Because I'm barking mad, and this is therapy.

### Building and Invoking

Build with

||||
The project target is to be able to run the [Wang algorithm for the propositional calculus](https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=52) given in chapter 8 of the *Lisp 1.5 Programmer's Manual*. When that runs, the project is as far as I am concerned feature complete. I may keep tinkering with it after that and I'll certainly accept pull requests which are in the spirit of the project (i.e. making Beowulf more usable, and/or implementing parts of Lisp 1.5 which I have not implemented), but this isn't intended to be a new language for doing real work; it's an
|
||||
educational and archaeological project, not serious engineering.
|
||||
|
||||
lein uberjar
|
||||
Some `readline`-like functionality would be really useful, but my attempt to
|
||||
integrate [JLine](https://github.com/jline/jline3) has not (yet) been successful.
|
||||
|
||||
An in-core structure editor would be an extremely nice thing, and I may well
|
||||
implement one.

||||
|
||||
You are of course welcome to fork the project and do whatever you like with it!

Currently `SETQ` and `DEFUN` are implemented as reader macros, sort of. It would

now be possible to reimplement them as `FEXPRs` and so the reader macro functionality will probably go away.
|

||||
### Functions and symbols implemented
|
||||
|
||||
The following functions and symbols are implemented:
|
||||
|
||||
| Function | Type | Signature | Implementation | Documentation |
|
||||
|--------------|----------------|------------------|----------------|----------------------|
|
||||
| NIL | Lisp variable | | | ? |
|
||||
| T | Lisp variable | | | ? |
|
||||
| F | Lisp variable | | | ? |
|
||||
| ADD1 | Host function | (ADD1 X) | | ? |
|
||||
| AND | Host function | (AND & ARGS) | PREDICATE | `T` if and only if none of my `args` evaluate to either `F` or `NIL`, else `F`. In `beowulf.host` principally because I don't yet feel confident to define varargs functions in Lisp. |
|
||||
| APPEND | Lisp function | (APPEND X Y) | LAMBDA-fn | see manual pages <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=19'>11</a>, <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=69'>61</a> |
|
||||
| APPLY | Host function | (APPLY FUNCTION ARGS ENVIRONMENT DEPTH) | | Apply this `function` to these `arguments` in this `environment` and return the result. For bootstrapping, at least, a version of APPLY written in Clojure. All args are assumed to be symbols or `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects. See page 13 of the Lisp 1.5 Programmers Manual. |
|
||||
| ATOM | Host function | (ATOM X) | PREDICATE | Returns `T` if and only if the argument `x` is bound to an atom; else `F`. It is not clear to me from the documentation whether `(ATOM 7)` should return `T` or `F`. I'm going to assume `T`. |
|
||||
| CAR | Host function | (CAR X) | | Return the item indicated by the first pointer of a pair. NIL is treated specially: the CAR of NIL is NIL. |

|
||||
| CDR | Host function | (CDR X) | | Return the item indicated by the second pointer of a pair. NIL is treated specially: the CDR of NIL is NIL. |
|
||||
| CONS | Host function | (CONS CAR CDR) | | Construct a new instance of cons cell with this `car` and `cdr`. |
|
||||

|
||||
| DEFINE | Host function | (DEFINE ARGS) | PSEUDO-FUNCTION | Bootstrap-only version of `DEFINE` which, post boostrap, can be overwritten in LISP. The single argument to `DEFINE` should be an assoc list which should be nconc'ed onto the front of the oblist. Broadly, (SETQ OBLIST (NCONC ARG1 OBLIST)) |

|
||||
| ERROR | Host function | (ERROR & ARGS) | PSEUDO-FUNCTION | Throw an error |
|
||||
| EQ | Host function | (EQ X Y) | PREDICATE | Returns `T` if and only if both `x` and `y` are bound to the same atom, else `NIL`. |
|
||||
| EQUAL | Host function | (EQUAL X Y) | PREDICATE | This is a predicate that is true if its two arguments are identical S-expressions, and false if they are different. (The elementary predicate `EQ` is defined only for atomic arguments.) The definition of `EQUAL` is an example of a conditional expression inside a conditional expression. NOTE: returns `F` on failure, not `NIL` |
|
||||
| EVAL | Host function | (EVAL EXPR); (EVAL EXPR ENV DEPTH) | | Evaluate this `expr` and return the result. If `environment` is not passed, it defaults to the current value of the global object list. The `depth` argument is part of the tracing system and should not be set by user code. All args are assumed to be numbers, symbols or `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects. |
|
||||
| FACTORIAL | Lisp function | (FACTORIAL N) | LAMBDA-fn | ? |
|
||||
| FIXP | Host function | (FIXP X) | PREDICATE | ? |
|
||||
| GENSYM | Host function | (GENSYM ) | | Generate a unique symbol. |
|
||||
| GET | Lisp function | (GET X Y) | LAMBDA-fn | see manual pages <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=49'>41</a>, <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=67'>59</a> |
|
||||
| GREATERP | Host function | (GREATERP X Y) | PREDICATE | ? |
|
||||
| INTEROP | Host function | (INTEROP FN-SYMBOL ARGS) | (INTEROP) | Clojure (or other host environment) interoperation API. `fn-symbol` is expected to be either 1. a symbol bound in the host environment to a function; or 2. a sequence (list) of symbols forming a qualified path name bound to a function. Lower case characters cannot normally be represented in Lisp 1.5, so both the upper case and lower case variants of `fn-symbol` will be tried. If the function you're looking for has a mixed case name, that is not currently accessible. `args` is expected to be a Lisp 1.5 list of arguments to be passed to that function. Return value must be something acceptable to Lisp 1.5, so either a symbol, a number, or a Lisp 1.5 list. If `fn-symbol` is not found (even when cast to lower case), or is not a function, or the value returned cannot be represented in Lisp 1.5, an exception is thrown with `:cause` bound to `:interop` and `:detail` set to a value representing the actual problem. |
|
||||
| INTERSECTION | Lisp function | (INTERSECTION X Y) | LAMBDA-fn | ? |
|
||||
| LENGTH | Lisp function | (LENGTH L) | LAMBDA-fn | see manual pages <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=70'>62</a> |

| NUMBERP | Host function | (NUMBERP X) | PREDICATE | ? |
|
||||
| OBLIST | Host function | (OBLIST ) | | Return a list of the symbols currently bound on the object list. **NOTE THAT** in the Lisp 1.5 manual, footnote at the bottom of page 69, it implies that an argument can be passed but I'm not sure of the semantics of this. |
|
||||

|
||||
| QUOTIENT | Host function | (QUOTIENT X Y) | | I'm not certain from the documentation whether Lisp 1.5 `QUOTIENT` returned the integer part of the quotient, or a realnum representing the whole quotient. I am for now implementing the latter. |
|
||||
| RANGE | Lisp variable | ? | (RANGE (LAMBDA (N M) (COND ((LESSP M N) (QUOTE NIL)) ((QUOTE T) (CONS N (RANGE (ADD1 N) M)))))) | ? |
|
||||
| READ | Host function | (READ ); (READ INPUT) | PSEUDO-FUNCTION | An implementation of a Lisp reader sufficient for bootstrapping; not necessarily the final Lisp reader. `input` should be either a string representation of a LISP expression, or else an input stream. A single form will be read. |
|
||||
| REMAINDER | Host function | (REMAINDER X Y) | | ? |

| REPEAT | Lisp function | (REPEAT N X) | LAMBDA-fn | ? |

|
||||
| RPLACD | Host function | (RPLACD CELL VALUE) | PSEUDO-FUNCTION | Replace the CDR pointer of this `cell` with this `value`. Dangerous, should really not exist, but does in Lisp 1.5 (and was important for some performance hacks in early Lisps) |
|
||||
| SET | Host function | (SET SYMBOL VAL) | PSEUDO-FUNCTION | Implementation of SET in Clojure. Add to the `oblist` a binding of the value of `var` to the value of `val`. NOTE WELL: this is not SETQ! |
|
||||
| SUB1 | Lisp function | (SUB1 N) | LAMBDA-fn | see manual pages <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=34'>26</a>, <a href='https://www.softwarepreservation.org/projects/LISP/book/LISP%201.5%20Programmers%20Manual.pdf#page=72'>64</a> |
|
||||
| SYSIN | Host function | (SYSIN ); (SYSIN FILENAME) | (SYSIN) | Read the contents of the file at this `filename` into the object list. If the file is not a valid Beowulf sysout file, this will probably corrupt the system, you have been warned. File paths will be considered relative to the filepath set when starting Lisp. It is intended that sysout files can be read both from resources within the jar file, and from the file system. If a named file exists in both the file system and the resources, the file system will be preferred. **NOTE THAT** if the provided `filename` does not end with `.lsp` (which, if you're writing it from the Lisp REPL, it won't), the extension `.lsp` will be appended. |
|
||||
| SYSOUT | Host function | (SYSOUT ); (SYSOUT FILEPATH) | (SYSOUT) | Dump the current content of the object list to file. If no `filepath` is specified, a file name will be constructed of the symbol `Sysout` and the current date. File paths will be considered relative to the filepath set when starting Lisp. |

|

| APPLY | Host lambda function | ? | | Apply this `function` to these `arguments` in this `environment` and return the result. For bootstrapping, at least, a version of APPLY written in Clojure. All args are assumed to be symbols or `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects. See page 13 of the Lisp 1.5 Programmers Manual. |
|
||||
| ASSOC | Lisp lambda function, Host lambda function | ? | ? | If a is an association list such as the one formed by PAIRLIS in the above example, then assoc will produce the first pair whose first term is x. Thus it is a table searching function. All args are assumed to be `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects. See page 12 of the Lisp 1.5 Programmers Manual. **NOTE THAT** this function is overridden by an implementation in Lisp, but is currently still present for bootstrapping. |

|

| EQUAL | Host lambda function | ? | PREDICATE | This is a predicate that is true if its two arguments are identical S-expressions, and false if they are different. (The elementary predicate `EQ` is defined only for atomic arguments.) The definition of `EQUAL` is an example of a conditional expression inside a conditional expression. NOTE: returns `F` on failure, not `NIL` |
|

| EVAL | Host lambda function | ? | | Evaluate this `expr` and return the result. If `environment` is not passed, it defaults to the current value of the global object list. The `depth` argument is part of the tracing system and should not be set by user code. All args are assumed to be numbers, symbols or `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects. However, if called with just a single arg, `expr`, I'll assume it's being called from the Clojure REPL and will coerce the `expr` to `ConsCell`. |

| GET | Host lambda function | ? | | From the manual: '`get` is somewhat like `prop`; however its value is car of the rest of the list if the `indicator` is found, and NIL otherwise.' It's clear that `GET` is expected to be defined in terms of `PROP`, but we can't implement `PROP` here because we lack `EVAL`; and we can't have `EVAL` here because both it and `APPLY` depends on `GET`. OK, It's worse than that: the statement of the definition of `GET` (and of) `PROP` on page 59 says that the first argument to each must be a list; But the in the definition of `ASSOC` on page 70, when `GET` is called its first argument is always an atom. Since it's `ASSOC` and `EVAL` which I need to make work, I'm going to assume that page 59 is wrong. |

All args are assumed to be `beowulf.cons-cell/ConsCell` objects.

|

| PROG | Host nlambda function | ? | | The accursed `PROG` feature. See page 71 of the manual. Lisp 1.5 introduced `PROG`, and most Lisps have been stuck with it ever since. It introduces imperative programming into what should be a pure functional language, and consequently it's going to be a pig to implement. Broadly, `PROG` is a variadic pseudo function called as a `FEXPR` (or possibly an `FSUBR`, although I'm not presently sure that would even work.) The arguments, which are unevaluated, are a list of forms, the first of which is expected to be a list of symbols which will be treated as names of variables within the program, and the rest of which (the 'program body') are either lists or symbols. Lists are treated as Lisp expressions which may be evaulated in turn. Symbols are treated as targets for the `GO` statement. **GO:** A `GO` statement takes the form of `(GO target)`, where `target` should be one of the symbols which occur at top level among that particular invocation of `PROG`s arguments. A `GO` statement may occur at top level in a PROG, or in a clause of a `COND` statement in a `PROG`, but not in a function called from the `PROG` statement. When a `GO` statement is evaluated, execution should transfer immediately to the expression which is the argument list immediately following the symbol which is its target. If the target is not found, an error with the code `A6` should be thrown. **RETURN:** A `RETURN` statement takes the form `(RETURN value)`, where `value` is any value. Following the evaluation of a `RETURN` statement, the `PROG` should immediately exit without executing any further expressions, returning the value. **SET and SETQ:** In addition to the above, if a `SET` or `SETQ` expression is encountered in any expression within the `PROG` body, it should affect not the global object list but instead only the local variables of the program. **COND:** In **strict** mode, when in normal execution, a `COND` statement none of whose clauses match should not return `NIL` but should throw an error with the code `A3`... *except* that inside a `PROG` body, it should not do so. *sigh*. **Flow of control:** Apart from the exceptions specified above, expressions in the program body are evaluated sequentially. If execution reaches the end of the program body, `NIL` is returned. Got all that? Good. |
