What is TinyPanda
TinyPanda is a lightweight, dynamically typed, interpreted programming language designed for learning and experimentation. It focuses on keeping the language simple and easy to read while providing the core features needed to write programs and understand how programming languages work.
Design
TinyPanda's interpreter is built around a Pratt parser for parsing expressions and uses a tree-walking interpreter to execute programs. It is written in Go and was originally inspired by Writing an Interpreter in Go. Over time, it has evolved with its own features, built-in functions, and improvements.
