# Nasal-Interpreter

# Nasal

Nasal is a script language that used in FlightGear.

There is a Nasal console in FlightGear but sometimes it is not so easy for every developer to use.

So this is an interpreter for Nasal written by C++.

The interpreter is still in development.Anyone who interested in this could also join us!

This is what it outputs.

# Now with var_stack and function_stack

By printing the two stacks you can see how vars and functions change!

[long long int]a:1

[double]b:3.14

[string]c:"hello world!"

function:swap

function:__main

function:hello
