Slimlog parser only understands four literals, which made the parser very easy to write
Statements are the base of the language, your program is a single recursive statement,
usually a do statement. The syntax is as follows:
(command [args..])
The brackets are required and so it the command, which means you cannot
have empty brackets in slimlog, that would be a syntax error.
args can be any type, including another statement. command must
be a valid identifier
String literals are like from any other language, and do not need to be explained too deeply.
'string'
"string"
As of now, there are no differences between the delimiters, and there are no escape sequences, except for those that mlog itself uses.
Numbers are always doubles, and due to how they're currently implemented, they will be converted during compilation to Rust's f64 type, possibly changing them from how they appear in the final code. This will possibly be fixed in future versions of slimlog.

Identifiers is a string of non-delimited characters that does not start with a number. They're used as commands, variables, operators, keywords, and all functions are free to interpret them however they want, although there is some amount of standardisation kept between them.
