ZPE

Where is it now?

2023

Positive growth

ZPE has grown from strength to strength.

Exceptional Traction

ZPE has gained significant traction in recent years, attracting a growing user base.

New Features

  • Regular releases
  • New features added all the time
  • Performance improvements made in almost every release

Regular Releases

A new release of ZPE is consistently delivered, ensuring continuous improvement and innovation.

Parse

Parsing is done using the Zenith Parsing Engine. It needs to be fast and reliable.

1.

Compile

ZPE then compiles the code into an abstract tree (IAST). The code is then checked for optimisations and then it is validated.

2.

Run

Finally, the code is run through the ZPE Runtime Interpreter from the AST. The runtime runs appropriate code straight after.

What's new in 2023?

empty()

The new empty function allows easy and fast checking if a string. map, list or object is empty

x = 10

Unbound variable declaration allows for variables without a $ sign at the front of them

$m = print

You can now assign function handles to variables 

boolean | number

Multiple return types are now possible with ZPE using union return types.

$n = 1 to 5

Inline assignment allows the use of loop like syntax to create a list of numbers

cast("21", number)

Casting values between two types is even easier than before 

ZPE has recently moved to a private GitHub repo. This has made development easier to track and maintain. 

ZPE continues to lead with huge performance increases and simplicity in the language.

ZPE Online has allowed users to store and share code using a free online service.

The last few years have been great!
