/ and * should be evaluated before + and -

The print function should handle both string literals and string variables

Example:

def main () Void:
  let str = "Hello";
  print(str);
  print("World");

Better than having "endif", "endfor", etc

It's everywhere

Uint should be unsigned 64 bit, Int should be signed 64 bit

Arrays should initially:

• Be dynamic
• Be initializable with a literal
• Have a length property
• Be usable in function and argument types
• Be printable with printIntArr

Example:

def main () Void:
  let arr = [1, 2, 3 + 4, 5+ 6];
  let arr2 = wrapPrintIntArr(arr);
  printIntArr(arr2);

def wrapPrintIntArr ( arr : Int[] ) Int[]:
  printIntArr(arr);
  ret arr;

The compiler should generate D code, LLVM, or both.

Proposal:

Add [example name].output files to the examples whose output should be verified. If no such file exists, the program is simply tested for runability.

The different types of exception (parser, semantic, eval, etc) should be caught and printed with some kind of context.
