The REPL

The Miking bootstrap interpreter features a simple REPL, which lets you interactively execute fragments of MCore code. Both toplevel definitions and expressions can be evaluated.

To start the REPL (assuming that the interpreter is installed in the path), run

boot repl

The following is an example interaction with the REPL.
