This page summarizes the core capabilities of Fun: the language, its virtual machine/runtime, tooling, build options, and the surrounding ecosystem.
- VM opcodes overview: /documentation/opcodes/
- Optional extensions catalog: /documentation/extensions/
---
## Language
- Simple, expressive syntax designed for scripting and embedding
- Firstclass functions and function calls
- Variables, locals and globals with stackbased execution model
- Control flow: conditional jumps, returns, and basic boolean operators
- Arrays and maps as primary collection types (literal construction, indexing, slicing, membership)
- Strings with common operations (substring, find, split, join)
- Arithmetic and bitwise integer operations (add, sub, mul, div, mod; band, bor, bxor, shifts, rotations)
- Exceptions and error handling primitives (throw/try semantics at VM level)
- Regular expressions support via optional PCRE2 extension (see Extensions)
### Syntax & Structure
- Indentation-based block structure (strict 2-space indent)
- Line comments (`//`) and block comments (`/* */`)
- Optional shebang (`#!`) line for script execution
- Unicode string support via UTF-8 throughout
- `exit` statement with optional exit code
Notes:
### Type System
- **Dynamic typing** with optional **static type annotations**
- **Value types:** Integer (signed 64-bit), Float (double), Boolean, String, Array, Map, Function, Nil
- **Type annotations:** `number`, `string`, `boolean`, `float`, `nil`, `array`, `map`, `class`
- **Fixed-width integer types:** `byte` / `uint8`, `uint16`, `uint32`, `uint64`, `int8`, `int16`, `int32`, `int64` — with automatic range clamping
- **Type aliases:** `sint8``sint64` as synonyms for `int8``int64`
- `typeof()` runtime type introspection
- `to_string()` and `to_number()` conversion functions
- `cast(value, typeName)` explicit type casting
- See the opcode index for the precise stack behavior of each operation: /documentation/opcodes/
### Variables & Scope
- Global and local (per-function) variable scoping
- Auto-declaration on first assignment
- Typed variable declarations: `string name = "Fun"`
- Up to 128 globals, 64 locals per frame, 128 call frames
### Operators
**Arithmetic:** `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `%` (addition also concatenates strings)
**Comparison:** `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=`, `==`, `!=`
**Logical:** `&&` (and), `||` (or), `!` (not) — short-circuit evaluation
**Bitwise (32-bit):** `band()`, `bor()`, `bxor()`, `bnot()`, `shl()`, `shr()`, `rol()`, `ror()`
**Ternary:** `condition ? true_expr : false_expr`
### Data Structures
**Arrays:**
- Literal syntax: `[1, 2, 3]`
- Index get/set: `arr[0]`, `arr[0] = value`
- Slice syntax: `arr[start:end]`
- Negative indices for end-relative access
- Built-in operations: `len()`, `push()`, `pop()`, `insert()`, `remove()`, `slice()`, `contains()`, `indexOf()`, `clear()`, `enumerate()`, `zip()`, `join()`, `map()`, `filter()`, `reduce()`
**Maps (dictionaries):**
- Literal syntax: `{"key": value, ...}`
- Bracket access/assignment: `map["key"]`, `map["key"] = value`
- Dot property access: `map.key`
- Built-in operations: `has()`, `keys()`, `values()`
### Strings
- Double and single-quoted string literals
- Concatenation with `+`
- Built-in operations: `len()`, `substr()`, `find()`, `split()`, `join()`
### Control Flow
- `if` / `else if` / `else` conditional chains
- `while` loops with `break` and `continue`
- `for var in array` — array iteration
- `for var in range(start, end)` — numeric range iteration (`[start, end)`)
- `for (key, value) in map` — map key-value iteration
- `match` expression (stdlib `lib/utils/match.fun`)
### Functions
- Named function definitions: `fun name(params) body`
- Anonymous function literals: `fn(params) body`
- First-class functions (pass as arguments, store in variables)
- Recursion support
- Return with `return expr` (or implicit nil)
### Object-Oriented Programming
- Class definitions: `class Name(typed params) body`
- Constructor method: `_construct(this, ...)` — auto-invoked on instantiation
- Methods: `fun method(this, ...)` inside class body
- Field access and mutation via `this.field`
- Property access via dot notation: `obj.field`
- Method call sugar: `obj.method(args)` (auto-binds `this`)
- Single inheritance: `class Child(...) extends Parent`
- Method overriding in subclasses
### Error Handling
- `try` / `catch` / `finally` blocks
- Error variable binding: `catch err`
- `throw` opcode for raising exceptions
- Per-frame try-stack for nested exception handlers
### Pattern Matching & Regex (Built-in POSIX)
- `regex_match(str, pattern)` — full match test (returns 1/0)
- `regex_search(str, pattern)` — first match with groups (returns map)
- `regex_replace(str, pattern, replacement)` — global search and replace
### Functional Programming
- First-class and anonymous functions
- `map(array, fn)` — transform each element
- `filter(array, fn)` — keep matching elements
- `reduce(array, init, fn)` — accumulate values
- Higher-order functions (functions that accept or return functions)
- `enumerate()` and `zip()` iteration helpers
### Concurrency
- `thread_spawn(fn, args)` — spawn a thread, returns thread ID
- `thread_join(id)` — join a thread, returns its result
- Cooperative async scheduler (stdlib `lib/async/scheduler.fun`)
---
## Virtual Machine & Runtime
- Compact stackbased bytecode VM implemented in C (C99)
- Deterministic execution model with explicit opcodes for core language features
- Efficient array and map primitives with indexing and mutation opcodes
- Builtin string operations and regex integration (with extension)
- Minimal error model integrated with VM (throw/try handlers)
### Architecture
- Compact stack-based bytecode VM written in **C99**
- Tagged union value type supporting 8 runtime types
- ~220 opcodes covering all language features
- Separate operand stack (1024 entries), call frames (128 max), and globals (128)
- Each frame has 64 local slots and a 16-entry try/catch stack
## Standard Library (Core)
### Memory & Performance
- Deterministic execution model
- Reference-counted arrays and maps
- Function/data sectioning with linker GC for small binaries
- LTO (Link-Time Optimization) support for Release builds
Core functionality available out of the box in the VM and library modules:
### Debugging & Tracing
- Built-in debugger with breakpoints (up to 64)
- Step, next, finish, and continue commands
- `--trace` / `-t` flag for opcode-level execution tracing
- Per-opcode execution counters (compile-time `FUN_TRACE`)
- `--repl-on-error` flag: drops into interactive REPL on runtime error with stack preserved
- Stack trace printing on errors
- Source line mapping in error messages (includes include-file resolution)
- Arrays: create, push/pop, insert/remove, slice, contains, join, enumerate
- Maps: create, has_key, keys, values
- Strings: substr, find, split, replace (with regex), join
- Math and bitwise ops over fixedwidth integers used by the VM
### I/O & Platform
- `print()` — output with newline
- `echo()` — output without newline (immediate flush)
- `read_file(path)` — read entire file into string
- `write_file(path, data)` — write string to file
- `input_line()` — read a line from stdin (with optional prompt)
- `env(name)` / `env_all()` — get environment variables
- `proc_run(cmd)` — run command, capture stdout+exit code
- `system(cmd)` — run command via shell, returns exit code
- `os_list_dir(path)` — list directory entries
See the opcode list for the canonical reference: /documentation/opcodes/
### Date, Time & Random
- `time_now_ms()` — wall clock in milliseconds since Unix epoch
- `clock_mono_ms()` — monotonic clock for interval measurement
- `date_format(ms, fmt)` — format timestamps via strftime
- `sleep(ms)` — suspend execution
- `random_seed(seed)` — seed the PRNG
- `random_int(lo, hi)` — random integer in `[lo, hi)`

## Build System & Options

Fun uses CMake and exposes toggles that mirror the projects optionality at build time:
## Build System

- FUN_USE_MUSL — build against musl when available
- FUN_WITH_CPP — enable C++ interop/components where applicable
- FUN_WITH_RUST — build and link an optional Rust static library with opcode examples
- FUN_BUILD_DOCS — generate documentation (Doxygen/website pipelines)
- FUN_WITH_* — perextension toggles (see Extensions section)
- **CMake** 3.10+ with C99 standard
- Build toggles: `FUN_DEBUG`, `FUN_USE_MUSL`, `FUN_WITH_REPL`, `FUN_WITH_CPP`, `FUN_WITH_RUST`, `FUN_BUILD_DOCS`
- Per-extension toggles for all optional libraries
- Release builds with LTO, function/data sectioning, and `--gc-sections`
- Doxygen documentation generation
- Install targets for binaries, libraries, examples, man pages
- Uninstall target with safe directory cleanup
Targets available for CI/workflows include Experimental/Continuous/Nightly aggregates, plus unit tests and coverage helpers (see CMake targets).
