I would think this is impossible, since this language is designed to be non-turing complete and forbids arbitrary side effects. You would always need a container language to make anything happen
- avmich 2y agoThe C language also requires some assembly, or rather machine code, if you're starting strictly from scratch. Ok, not bootstrap in a sense of creating a sublanguage which allows to write the rest. I'm curious about how to write Dhall in C. Dhall doesn't look like a large language, right?
