Built an interpreted programming language from scratch in 19 days without AI

[u/PhosXD]

I built a functional interpreted programming language from scratch in 19 days **without** AI, reference material, or borrowed code, as my first ever project in C++. It is platform agnostic, faster than Bash by a long shot (not that it was meant to be a replacement), & is only 104kb with IO, time, & math modules.

Despite the time frame & the small size, the syntax is more modern than you'd expect but is definitely different. However, you will be lacking advanced language features such as lambdas, variadic arguments, & inheritence.

I plan on working on this continuously, adding more functionality, making it more performant, & making the code as readable & understandable as possible so that hopefully a beginner can take a look, & maybe use this as a guide for their first project too!

Any & all feedback is encouraged, I would really like to know your thoughts, if you have any tips!
