Introduction

Slime is a custom programming language designed for educational purposes. This interpreter is written in Go and aims to provide a simple yet powerful platform for experimenting with language design and interpreter implementation. As this project is a work in progress, new features and improvements are continuously being added.

Features

Currently, the Slime Language Interpreter supports the following features:

• Basic lexical analysis (tokenization)
• Basic syntax parsing
• Error handling for invalid tokens

Planned features include:

• Full syntax parsing for a simple language grammar
• Evaluation of expressions and statements
• Support for variables and basic data types
• Control flow statements (if, while, for)
• Function definitions and calls

Installation

To install the Slime Language Interpreter, you need to have Go installed on your system. You can clone the repository and build the project using the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/slime
cd slime
go mod tidy**
