Guess the Number Game

[Capital-EX]

Hi, I wanted to share a guess the number game I made with Effekt. It's the first time I've experimented with algebraic effects so I was just placing them wherever I could squeeze them.

I did find on bug with the chez backends. Running (get-line (current-input-port)) would freeze the repl. Terminating the session using ctrl-c would cause the process to swiftly consume memory.

Hey, welcome! And thanks for reporting this bug. Have you tried running the example outside of the effekt repl / sbt? I also noticed problems with the chez backend, when starting the program from within sbt / the Java .jar

The scheme file will be generated in the out folder and you should be able to start it directly with scheme --script out/myfile.ss (https://github.com/effekt-lang/effekt/blob/master/effekt/jvm/src/main/scala/effekt/Runner.scala#L116)

It works when running outside of the effekt repl. That's what my small shell script does:

#!/bin/env sh
effekt.sh --backend chez-callcc -c main.effekt
scheme --script out/main.ss

Thanks for confirming and sorry for the inconvenience. I am glad it works for you .
