// Represents an expression in a Lisp-like language. // Converts an expression to its string representation.

Types

The expression can be one of:

Atom: A symbolic name or identifier (e.g., +, define, variable names)
Number: An integer value
List: A list of expressions, typically representing function calls or special forms
Builtin: A built-in function that can evaluate lists of expressions

pub type Expr {
  Atom(String)
  Number(Int)
  List(List(Expr))
  Builtin(fn(List(Expr)) -> Result(Expr, String))
}

Builtin(fn(List(Expr)) -> Result(Expr, String))

</>

pub fn expr_to_string(expr: Expr) -> String

This function returns a human-readable string that represents the given expression:

Atoms are converted to their name
Numbers are converted to their string representation
Lists are converted recursively with elements joined by spaces and enclosed in parentheses
Builtin functions are represented as “#”
