Simon Forman 400cc7dcde Partial reduction for combinator rule works after all. 
It just looked weird to me and I didn't think it through.
Once I checked it I realized it was okay.

Simon Forman 8d1797c1b6 Uncovered and fixed a subtle bug in free_reg//3. 
non_alloc/1 for words that don't change the ref count of registers and can be delegated to their semantic relation.
 2020-01-29 11:04:22 -08:00
Simon Forman 95df1fda8c Cons. I should research Lisp compilers... 
I think I should emit high-level code and reduce it to actual
machine code later under whatever model (cons cell heap, etc.)

Simon Forman 26c92e9a48 Add assoc to kinda sorta track the values in the registers. 
But it doesn't update e.g. if you add two numbers, the value int(N) stays the same.

It could be modified to track the value as it computes?  But then why keep them in registers at all? Sometimes a value must arrive at runtime, eh?

It seems to work to allocate and free registers with a kind of reference counting
by membership in an auxilliary list.

Simon Forman ab0a378b56 Minor cleanup. 
I feel like I should keep the un-partially-reduced thun/4 but
you can still read it, and the reduced forms are more efficient.
(And not too much more wordy.)
 2020-01-26 16:50:49 -08:00
Simon Forman 76de590d27 Experiments with partial reduction are very promising. 
Functions become clauses like these:

    thun(symbol(rolldown), [], [C, A, B|D], [A, B, C|D]).
    thun(symbol(rolldown), [A|B], [E, C, D|F], G) :-
        thun(A, B, [C, D, E|F], G).
    thun(symbol(dupd), [], [A, B|C], [A, B, B|C]).
    thun(symbol(dupd), [A|B], [C, D|E], F) :-
        thun(A, B, [C, D, D|E], F).
    thun(symbol(over), [], [B, A|C], [A, B, A|C]).7
    thun(symbol(over), [A|B], [D, C|E], F) :-
        thun(A, B, [C, D, C|E], F).


Definitions become

    thun(symbol(of), A, D, E) :-
        append([symbol(swap), symbol(at)], A, [B|C]),
        thun(B, C, D, E).
    thun(symbol(pam), A, D, E) :-
        append([list([symbol(i)]), symbol(map)], A, [B|C]),
        thun(B, C, D, E).
    thun(symbol(popd), A, D, E) :-
        append([list([symbol(pop)]), symbol(dip)], A, [B|C]),
        thun(B, C, D, E).


These are tail-recursive and allow for better indexing so I would expect
them to be more efficient than the originals.

Notice the difference between the original thun/4 rule for definitions
and this other one that actually works.

    thun(symbol(Def),   E, Si, So) :- def(Def, Body), append(Body, E,    E o),    thun(Eo, Si, So).
    thun(symbol(Def),   E, Si, So) :- def(Def, Body), append(Body, E, [T|Eo]), thun(T, Eo, Si, So)


The latter reduces to:

    thun(symbol(A), C, F, G) :-
        def(A, B),
        append(B, C, [D|E]),
        thun(D, E, F, G).


We want something like...

    thun(symbol(B), [], A, D) :- def(B, [H|C]), thun(H, C, A, D).
    thun(symbol(A), [H|E0], Si, So) :-
        def(A, [DH|DE]),
        append(DE, [H|E0], E),
        thun(DH, E, Si, So).

But it's good enough.  The earlier version doesn't transform into
correct code:

    thun(symbol(B), D, A, A) :- def(B, C), append(C, D, []).
    thun(symbol(A), C, F, G) :- def(A, B), append(B, C, [D|E]), thun(D, E, F, G).

It would probably be good to investigate what goes wrong there.)

It doesn't seem to work right for thun/4 combinator rules either.  Dunno what's
up there.

Simon Forman ef6d271c85 Partial reduction of thun/3 in the thun/4 relation. 
It mostly works.

Simon Forman e0a36eab8b Remove '==' from definitions. (Bools) 
I decided that the conceptual simplicity of omitting '==' is more useful
than the cosmetic value of keeping it.  The defs.txt file is now just one
definition per line with the first symbol giving the name.

Also, bools are literals.

Simon Forman ed41395560 Definition for 'not' in terms of 'branch'. 2020-01-26 08:44:57 -08:00
Simon Forman 2aa1765b89 Proper types, checking, inference. 
When I first translated Joy into Prolog I was so blown away by the Prolog
unification over list structures and Triska's CLP(FD) semantics for math
(both in the sense that he wrote CLP(FD) for SWI Prolog and he suggested
it for Joy-in-Prolog specifically) that I didn't realize that it wasn't
quite type inference.

It's kind of like type inference, in that lists are handled correctly and
the CLP(FD) library creates and maintains a kind of context for
constraints, which are sort-of like "dependent types" if you squint a
little.  But you can still do things like 'cons' a number to a number and
get (a Prolog term) like [2|3] which is almost certainly a bug.

So I went through and added type "tags" as Prolog terms: int/1, list/1,
and symbol/1.  The parser assigns them and all the primitive functions
and combinators use them (and so all the definitions do too.)  With this
information Prolog can e.g. prevent attempts to add numbers and lists, and
so on.

This also allows for the thun/3 relation to be implemented a little more
efficiently (without much loss of beauty) by looking ahead one term in
the pending expression and dispatching on structural "type" in a thun/4
relation.  I miss the elegance of the previous version, but this lets
Prolog index on the structural type tags that the parser produces.

(This might mess up tail recursion because now we have a loop between
thun/3 and thun/4 but we can eliminate that problem by partial reduction
on thun/3.  TODO.)

Now that literals are tagged by the parser there's no need for literal/1.

Simon Forman 6e6e52d206 Don't assert defs twice. 
Each definition is getting parsed with the name of the next one as part
of its body, then the next one fails to parse and the thing backtracks.
So each definition (but the last) gets asserted twice.

    def(--,[1,-,?])
    def(--,[1,-])
    def(?,[dup,bool,++])
    def(?,[dup,bool])
    def(++,[1,+,anamorphism])
    def(++,[1,+])
    def(anamorphism,[[pop,[]],swap,[dip,swons],genrec,app1])
    def(anamorphism,[[pop,[]],swap,[dip,swons],genrec])
    def(app1,[grba,infrst,app2])
    def(app1,[grba,infrst])
    def(app2,[[grba,swap,grba,swap],dip,[infrst],cons,ii,app3])
    def(app2,[[grba,swap,grba,swap],dip,[infrst],cons,ii])

...and so on.

Simon Forman 1ecb5be278 Change back to CLP(FD) semantics. 
Minor changes to parser to make it less logical but a little firmer.
(E.g. ints can't be backtracked into becoming symbols!)
