new

• a context-sensitive tale, helping hippos eat hay
• version 0.2.2 has now been released - this includes the j2d ruleset and fixes some glitches
• to avoid relying on case sensitivity in filenames, lmn2C is renamed lmn4c, and lmn2D is renamed lmn4d
• the j2d java to D language translator

guides, tutorials and recipes

• language machine notes - a pdf presentation
• a guide to the language machine
• pictures of computation and grammar
• from lambda to language with functional curry and theoretical outline
• groklm - building and trying a minimal translator
• grokcpp - building and trying a small preprocessor
• stemming - using associative arrays to find common stems or common subexpressions
• beer as in bottles - a 5 bottle experiment and the usual 99 bottles
• (the language machine wiki pages are offline at present following changes at sourceforge)
• glossary
• output buffers, flattening a nested structure, context sensitive rules
• lexical experiments and results
• At the feast of Lambda the Ultimate - a letter to Jonathan Swift (it may be a joke)

makefile and rules for this website
