So whats next?

[farkon00]

So I kinda run out of ideas. Leave a comment for this issue, if you have any. But please check if idea was already implemented in commits or in examples.

c interop?

[farkon00]

@tixvage Sounds not that bad. Only problem, i dont want to link to libc, but its better to use libc, then write sdl in cont. Thanks for response!

Plans: add different types of fors(like range or null-terminated), make compile time if

Finished.
I am currently planning to make types in runtime, generics and overloading for procedures

I've noticed that you used 18446744073709551615 as -1 in test.cn. Not sure if that's old code, but how about supporting negative numbers.

That's a pretty old code, and it might not even compile nowadays, I do not recomend using it as a reference. Negative numbers are supported since commit a02b962

Since cont is a pretty low level language (I mean, around as "low level" as c), how about goto or labeled loops.

They are not implemented for the same reason as break and continue: diffuculties with type checking in a stack-based language. But in my opinion these keywords for loops would be easier to implement than goto. And because for now we don't have break and continue I don't see a need for labeled loops. If there are other uses for them I would be glad to know them.

Function overloading

Function overloading

I think this should be implemented, but only after I merge in the wat64 branch. Also there might be problem with some of the places, that interact with procedures, where they might be not able to choose one implementation.

More documentation, a website, variadic functions, ability to use external functions.

I agree with @datawater on more documentation. Let's start a github pages site which hosts the manual and the quickstart guide.

Are you interested in this @farkon00 ? Should I open an issue to track this ?

Yes, as I have previously communicated in private messages with you, I do think it's a good idea to work on documenting the project. Github pages sound like a good idea too. Would you like to start it out and find a good way to integrate a markdown renderer with the github pages CD?

Also regarding the CD, I would like to point out the existence of the table of contents script, I think it would be quite nice to integrate it with the MD renderer.

I will create the issue regrading the documentation.
