This commit introduces purity inference to the compiler's optimizer.
This allows for more aggressive constant folding and dead code
elimination by tracking which functions and global variables
are free of side effects.
Key changes include:
- Added `global_purity` field to `Optimizer` and `Environment`.
- Modified `Optimizer::is_pure` to recursively determine if an
AST node represents a pure computation.
- Introduced `Optimizer::try_fold_pure` to replace the old
`try_fold_intrinsic`, enabling folding of pure function calls
with constant arguments.
- Updated `Environment::register_native` and
`Environment::register_constant`
to optionally record purity.
- Added purity flags to several built-in functions in `core.rs` and
`datetime.rs`.
- A new example `optimizer_purity.myc` demonstrates the new feature.
Introduce `BoundKind::Parameter` to represent function parameters.
Modify `Binder` to correctly handle parameters within lambda
definitions, ensuring they are only defined within function scopes.
Update `LambdaCollector` to register the body of lambdas as templates
for global definitions.
Adjust `Dumper` to accurately represent lambda parameters.
Update `Specializer` and `TCO` to handle the new `BoundKind::Parameter`.
Refactor `Call` and `TailCall` to use a single `args` node, often a
tuple.
Adjust type signatures in RTL to use `StaticType::Tuple` for function
parameters.
Boolean literals `true` and `false` are now parsed as identifiers,
matching the behavior of other constants like `NaN`. This change aligns
the AST representation of boolean literals with their runtime constants.
This commit introduces a new module `ast::rtl` to house the standard
runtime library functions for the language. It includes implementations
for arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /, //, %), logical operators (and,
or, xor, not), bitwise shifts (<<, >>), and comparison operators (=, <>,
<, >, <=, >=).
Additionally, a `date` function for parsing datetime strings has been
added. This enhances the language's capability to handle basic
mathematical and logical operations.
Add RTL functions for arithmetic and comparisons
This commit introduces the runtime library (RTL) functions for basic
arithmetic operations, logical/bitwise operations, and comparisons. It
also includes a `date` function for parsing datetime strings.
Integration tests have been updated to cover these new functionalities.
