status:
- everything is properly typed, up to the meta-circular level
- primitives
- structures: list, product, sum
can compose structures, e.g., create list of list of product of sum of ...
list type is specialized for ListOfByte to use Uint8Array
- generics currently implemented in two ways:
1) similar to "templates" (as in C++):
a generic function or type is a function that takes a Type, and produces a specific variant
2) experimental implementation of polymorphic types and type inferencing
values currently treated as white-box, hardcoded generic types (e.g., list, function) in type inferencing algorithm
todo:
- interfaces via typeclasses?
- type inferencing can be reduced to finding a graph isomorphism?
