# Toy
The Toy programming language is an imperative, bytecode-interpreted, embedded scripting language. Rather than functioning independently, it serves as part of another program—the host. This design allows for straightforward customization by both the hosts developer and end users, achieved by exposing program logic through text files.
This repository holds the reference implementation for Toy, written in C.
# Nifty Features
* Simple C-like syntax
* Intermediate bytecode interpretation
* Strong, but optional type system
* First-class and higher-order functions
* Extensible via external libraries
* Re-direct output, error and assertion failure messages
* Open source under the zlib license
