clox is a C++ port of the Lox tokenizer (scanner) from the book Crafting Interpreters by Nystrom.

This project currently implements only the tokenizing (scanning) phase of the Lox language, converting source code into a sequence of tokens via a REPL interface.

Support for files and the rest of the interpreter pipeline is planned for future development.

• REPL-style input: type in Lox code line-by-line
• Scanner/tokenizer converts input into:
  • Keywords (if, var, while, etc.)
  • Identifiers
  • Numbers (ints & floats)
  • Strings
  • Symbols (+, -, ==, etc.)
• Clear formatted token output for debugging

• File-based source scanning
• Parser and AST generation
• Runtime evaluation (interpreter)
