Ritchie

Web Compiler

Example program (for reference)

import Stdio

function _start() {
println("hi", 2)
SYS::EXIT
}

SYS::DATA

Assembly can be embedded directly into the language (Working to add features so you wouldnt need to use assembly)

SYS::EXIT

Exits program

SYS::DATA

Data section of the program, where you define variables, working on those too, soon to be “var name = db “value”

Constants are defined with “equ”

Functions

Defining a function:

function name(p1, p2, p3) {
pop $reg1 // return line
pop $reg2 // param 3
pop $reg3 // param 2
pop $reg4 // param 1

// run code

push $reg1 // return line
}

Calling a function:

name(p1, p2, p3)

Imports

If import is not included in my standard imports, then it will look around for an external import file

Stdio:

import Stdio // imports println() and input()

println(msg, msgLength)

input() // pushes output/response to stack

Stdlib:

import Stdlib // imports Sys aliases and ifEqu()

SYS_EXIT  // 1
SYS_READ  // 3
SYS_WRITE // 4
STDIN     // 0
STDOUT    // 1

ifEqu(1, 2, function) // (Value, Value, function pointer) Does not call function
ifEqu(1, 1, function) // calls function

strlen("string") // returns length of string (6, in this case)

External Import Files:

index.rit:

import external.rit // imports external .rit file (just takes contents of file, no "module.exports" or "require" statements)
import external.asm // imports external .asm file (same as above^^)

external.rit:

// No import Stdio needed, because it was included in the index.rit file, just make sure you import Stdio before importing external.rit

function external_function() {
println("Hello World!", 12)
ret
}

Variables:

declare variables with the “var” keyword

var ${size} ${name} = ${value}

b = byte

var b x = "hi"

println([x], 2)
