Metal

metal programming language is simple programming lang with all basic capability like {function, struct, ifelse, while, for ..etc}

Examples

1. Hello World

extern fn printf;

fn main(argc i32, argv *const *const i8) -> i32 {
    printf("hello world!\n");
}

2. A Basic Function

extern fn printf;

fn func(data *const i8) {
	printf("Hello %s\n", data);
}

fn main() -> i32 {
	func("Sahil");
	return 0;
}

3. Factorial of 5

extern fn printf;

fn facto(data i32) -> i32 {
	let f = 1;
	for i in data..1..-1 {
		f *= i;
	}
	return f;
}

fn main() -> i32 {
	printf("Factorial of 5 is: %d\n", facto(5));
	return 0;
}

4. Structures

There are no classes. Only structs.

extern fn printf;

struct Point {
	x i32,
	y ui32,
	z flt64,
}


fn main() -> i32 {
	let mut point = Point{x:1, y:2, z:3.25};
	return 0;
}

Installation

Prerequisites

To install metal, the following programs are required:

• A C++11 standard compliant compiler
• CMake (build system - for compiling the project)

Note: working.

Visual Studio Code: metal-lang/metalcode

system requirement: llvm-17.0.0 above clang C++14 above
