builtin types

• word
• int
• float
• bool

primops

• add / sub (float + int + word)
• mul / div (float + int + word)
• gt / ge / lt / le (float + int + word)
• eq / ne (float + int + word + bool)

features

• node support for codegen
• no garbage collector
• support for builtin types and primops
• single module (no module system)
• GRIN type system
• typed transformations
• compiled HPT

documentation

• HPT
• llvm codegen ; HPT as LLVM type inference
• shape functor ; pro / cons
• GRIN type system

sample programs

• observe compilation stages: GRIN -> LLVM -> x64

after the MVP

• LLVM codegen from high level GRIN without analysis
• migrate runtime values from universal representation to the optimized one
