Rosy

A modern Rust implementation of a transpiler for the ROSY programming language, designed for scientific computing and beam physics applications.

Overview

Rosy is a complete transpiler toolchain that converts ROSY source code to executable Rust programs. ROSY is a scientific programming language originally developed for the COSY INFINITY beam physics simulation environment, featuring:

• Strong static typing with types like RE (real), ST (string), LO (logical), CM (complex), and VE (vector)
• Procedures and functions with parameter passing
• Control flow constructs including IF/ELSE, LOOP, and WHILE
• Multi-dimensional arrays with dynamic sizing
• Built-in mathematical operations optimized for scientific computing
• Comprehensive type checking at transpilation time

Project Structure

The project is organized as a Rust workspace with several interconnected crates:

• rosy_transpiler/ - Main transpiler binary that parses ROSY source and generates Rust code
• rosy_lib/ - Runtime library providing ROSY data types and operations in Rust
• rosy_output/ - Template target for generated Rust executables
• rosy_ide_tools/ - Development tools including VSCode syntax highlighting extension

Documenation, Help

This repository will be filled out as the language stabilizes. Until then, stay tuned :)
