Functional Python with Mochi

on YouTube ↗29m

" summary

Mochi is a Python-like functional language that compiles to Python 3 and PyPy 3 bytecode and interoperates with existing Python libraries. It implements tail recursion optimization, pattern matching, persistent data structures, a pipeline operator, better anonymous functions, Erlang-style actors and Lisp-style macros. The compiler emits Python AST/bytecode and .pyc files and runs inside IPython notebooks; pattern-matching examples run currently about four times slower than simple recursion. The project is early but usable, uses pytest for tests and needs more documentation and optimization.
