"A small but rapidly progressing Lisp dialect under development."

Blue Water is a small and cute Lisp dialect written in python!

Albeit still in its early stages, we aim to grow it with passion.

If you’re new to Lisp, check out this quick intro.

Here are some of the things Blue Water currently does:

• Basic arithmetic: +, -, *, /
• Comparisons: >, <, >=, <=, ==, !=
• Advanced math: mod, pow, sqrt, abs (experimental)

• Variables: set to store values
• Lists: list to make lists, append to add elements
• List operations: len, reverse, index to manage elements (experimental)

• String creation with quotes
• String operations: concat, strlen, substr (currently buggy)

• Conditionals: if statements
• Loops: while loops
• Logic: & (and), | (or), true, false

• Print to console: print
• Read input: scan

We’re aiming for:

1. Feature progression — rapid growth and iteration
2. Good documentation — clear, complete, and beginner-friendly
3. Open contributions — an inviting community for all contributors
4. Clean code — readable and structured
