Lu

Lu is a lightweight pseudocode-to-Python compiler, currently supporting basic IGCE-style pseudocode. It uses Python’s built-in AST module to parse and translate pseudocode logic into Python code.

Supported Features

• Output Statements: Converts IGCE pseudocode OUTPUT commands to Python’s print() function.
• Conditional Logic: Handles IF, ELSE, ENDIF, and nested conditional statements.
• Variable Assignment: Supports variable declaration and assignment.
• Error Handling: Detects and reports syntax issues with details.
• Logging: Implements a logging system for debugging.

Usage

1. Write your IGCE pseudocode in a .lu file.

2. Run the Lu compiler:

   python lu/lu_compiler.py path_to_file/<filename>.lu

   This will generate <filename>.py, a Python equivalent of your pseudocode.

Example

For an input .lu file:

IF x > 5 THEN
    OUTPUT x
ELSE
    OUTPUT "Value too low"
ENDIF

The compiler will output equivalent Python code.

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/gsdev215/lu.git

Then navigate to the lu directory and run the compiler as described.
