+# Awk-Scheme
+
+## Overview
+A Scheme interpreter implemented in AWK, featuring:
+- A compiler that translates Scheme expressions to stack-based VM instructions
+- A virtual machine that executes the compiled code
+- Support for basic arithmetic, list operations, functions, and variable bindings
+- Persistent global state between REPL sessions
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Components
+1. **Compiler** (`bin/compiler.awk`):
+   - Lexical analyzer for tokenizing input
+   - Recursive descent parser for Scheme expressions
+   - Code generator that produces stack-based VM instructions
+   - Handles nested expressions and proper scoping
+
+2. **Virtual Machine** (`bin/vm.awk`):
+   - Stack-based execution model
+   - Typed value system with runtime type checking
+   - Environment-based variable binding
+   - Function call/return mechanism
+   - Heap memory for cons cells
+   - State persistence for globals and functions
+
+3. **REPL** (`bin/repl`):
+   - Interactive command line interface
+   - Multi-line input support
+   - State persistence between sessions
+   - Debug mode support
+
+### Data Types
+All values are tagged with their type:
+- `N:value` - Numbers (integers)
+- `B:value` - Booleans (0/1)
+- `P:index` - Pairs (cons cells)
+- `F:name` - Functions
+- `NIL:` - Empty list
+- `S:name` - Symbols
+
+## Usage
+
+### Running the REPL
+```bash
+# Start interactive REPL
+./scheme
+
+# Run a Scheme file
+./scheme myprogram.scm
+
+# Enable debug output
+DEBUG=1 ./scheme
+```
+
+### Basic Operations
+
+1. **Arithmetic**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (+ 1 2 3)
+N:6
+scheme> (* 4 (- 10 5))
+N:20
+```
+
+2. **Comparisons**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (< 1 2)
+B:1
+scheme> (= 42 42)
+B:1
+```
+
+3. **Lists**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (cons 1 (cons 2 nil))
+P:1
+scheme> (car (cons 1 2))
+N:1
+```
+
+4. **Variables**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (define x 42)
+N:42
+scheme> x
+N:42
+```
+
+5. **Functions**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (define add (x y) (+ x y))
+scheme> (add 2 3)
+N:5
+```
+
+6. **Let Expressions**:
+```scheme
+scheme> (let ((x 10) (y 20)) (+ x y))
+N:30
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Compiler Pipeline
+1. **Lexical Analysis**:
+   - Tokenizes input into numbers, symbols, and parentheses
+   - Handles whitespace and basic comments
+
+2. **Parsing**:
+   - Builds expression tree from tokens
+   - Validates syntax and expression structure
+
+3. **Code Generation**:
+   - Translates expressions to VM instructions
+   - Manages scope and variable bindings
+   - Handles function definitions
+
+### Virtual Machine
+1. **Stack Operations**:
+   - PUSH_CONST: Push constant value
+   - POP: Remove top value
+   - STORE: Store variable binding
+   - LOOKUP: Retrieve variable value
+
+2. **Function Calls**:
+   - CALL: Invoke function
+   - RETURN: Return from function
+   - Environment frame management
+
+3. **Memory Management**:
+   - Stack-based evaluation
+   - Simple heap for cons cells
+   - Basic reference counting (not fully implemented)
+
+### State Persistence
+- Global variables and functions persist between sessions
+- State stored in `/tmp/scheme_vm.state` and `/tmp/scheme_vm.env`
+- Automatic state loading/saving
+
+## Extending the System
+
+### Adding New Special Forms
+1. Add parsing in `compile_expr()`
+2. Implement code generation function
+3. Add corresponding VM instructions if needed
+
+### Adding New Data Types
+1. Define new type tag in VM
+2. Add type checking predicates
+3. Implement value construction/access
+4. Update relevant operations
+
+### Adding VM Instructions
+1. Add instruction handling in `execute()`
+2. Implement instruction logic
+3. Update compiler to generate new instruction
+
+### Debugging
+- Enable debug output: `DEBUG=1 ./scheme`
+- Debug messages show:
+  - Lexical analysis
+  - Parsing steps
+  - Code generation
+  - VM execution
+  - Stack operations
+  - Environment changes
+
+## Limitations
+Current implementation does not support:
+- Floating point numbers
+- Strings
+- Proper tail recursion
+- Garbage collection
+- Error recovery in REPL
+- Full numeric tower
+- Macros
+- Standard library
+
+## Future Enhancements
+1. Proper tail call optimization
+2. Garbage collection
+3. Error recovery
+4. More data types
+5. Standard library
+6. Better debugging tools

+Scheme Interpreter TODO
+=====================
+
+Current State:
+-------------
+- Basic arithmetic operations (+,-,*,/) are working
+- Let expressions with simple bindings are working
+- Function definitions (define) and lambda expressions are partially implemented
+- Stack-based virtual machine with environment for variable bindings
+
+Recent Changes:
+--------------
+1. Fixed function table array naming conflicts (func_name -> func_def_names)
+2. Modified vm_get_value to handle function names correctly
+3. Attempted to fix argument handling in function calls
+4. Modified lambda compilation to avoid pushing function name twice
+
+Current Issues:
+--------------
+1. Function Definitions (define):
+   - Function calls are failing with "ADD requires numeric operands"
+   - Arguments may not be properly passed to functions
+   - Function environment may not be properly set up
+
+2. Lambda Expressions:
+   - Direct lambda calls are failing
+   - Lambda bindings in let expressions are failing
+   - Function environment for lambda parameters may not be correct
+
+Next Steps:
+-----------
+1. Debug Function Calls:
+   - Add detailed debug logging in vm_call_function
+   - Verify argument handling and environment setup
+   - Check if function code is being properly stored and retrieved
+
+2. Fix Function Environment:
+   - Review how parameters are stored in the environment
+   - Ensure environment is properly restored after function calls
+   - Verify parameter values are correctly passed to functions
+
+3. Improve Lambda Support:
+   - Review lambda compilation process
+   - Ensure lambda functions are properly stored and called
+   - Fix environment handling for lambda parameters
+
+4. Testing Strategy:
+   - Create test cases for each type of function call
+   - Add debug output to track stack and environment state
+   - Verify each step of function compilation and execution
+
+5. Code Cleanup:
+   - Review and document function handling code
+   - Ensure consistent naming and error handling
+   - Add comments explaining complex operations
+
+Technical Notes:
+---------------
+- Function calls use a combination of LOOKUP, GET_VALUE, and CALL instructions
+- Environment stack handles variable bindings and function parameters
+- Function code is stored in FUNCTIONS table with unique names
+- Lambda functions use __lambda_N naming scheme
+
+Debugging Tips:
+--------------
+1. Enable DEBUG=1 to see detailed execution logs
+2. Check stack contents before and after each operation
+3. Verify environment state during function calls
+4. Monitor function code storage and retrieval

+# Stack-Based Virtual Machine in AWK
+
+A simple stack-based virtual machine implementation in AWK, inspired by Forth. The VM provides basic stack manipulation, arithmetic operations, register access, and memory operations.
+
+## Architecture
+
+The VM consists of:
+- A data stack (100 elements)
+- Main memory (1000 cells)
+- Three registers:
+  - A: General purpose register
+  - B: Often used as memory pointer
+  - P: Program pointer, used for sequential memory operations
+
+## Instruction Set
+
+### Stack Operations
+- `DROP` - Remove top item from stack
+- `DUP` - Duplicate top stack item
+- `OVER` - Copy second item to top of stack
+- `SWAP` - Exchange top two stack items
+- Numbers are automatically pushed onto the stack
+
+### Arithmetic Operations
+- `+` - Add top two stack items (a b -- a+b)
+- `*` - Multiply top two stack items (a b -- a*b)
+- `AND` - Bitwise AND of top two items
+- `XOR` - Bitwise XOR of top two items
+- `NOT` - Bitwise NOT of top item
+- `2*` - Multiply top item by 2 (shift left)
+- `2/` - Divide top item by 2 (shift right)
+
+### Register Operations
+- `A` - Push value of A register onto stack
+- `A!` - Store top stack value into A register
+- `B!` - Store top stack value into B register
+
+### Memory Operations
+- `@` - Fetch from memory address on stack (addr -- value)
+- `!` - Store to memory address on stack (value addr --)
+- `@+` - Fetch from memory at P, then increment P
+- `!+` - Store to memory at P, then increment P
+- `@B` - Fetch from memory address in B register
+- `!B` - Store to memory address in B register
+- `@P` - Fetch from memory address in P register
+- `!P` - Store to memory address in P register
+
+### Debug & Control
+- `.` - NO-OP (does nothing)
+- `BYE` - Exit program
+- `SHOW` - Display current machine state (stack, registers, memory)
+
+## Memory Model
+
+- Memory is zero-based
+- Each cell can hold a numeric value
+- Memory is accessed either directly (using @ and !) or through registers
+- P register is typically used for sequential memory operations
+- B register is typically used as a memory pointer
+
+## Example Programs
+
+### Store and retrieve a value
+```
+5 DUP 0 ! # Store 5 at address 0
+3 DUP 1 ! # Store 3 at address 1
+0 @ 1 @ + # Load both values and add them
+2 ! # Store result at address 2
+```
+
+### Using registers
+```
+42 A! # Store 42 in A register
+A # Push A's value onto stack
+100 B! # Set B to address 100
+42 !B # Store 42 at address 100
+@B # Read from address 100
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+# Run a program directly
+echo "5 3 + SHOW" | awk -f vm.awk
+
+# Compile and run a program
+./compiler.py program.coffee | awk -f vm.awk
+
+# Run test suite
+./vm_tests.sh
+```
