Claude Code transcript - page 6/7

Ok please proceed to implement support for ALT.

Thinking

The user wants me to implement ALT support. ALT is Occam's construct for selecting between multiple channel operations - whichever is ready first gets executed. This maps to Go's select statement.

Let me think about the Occam ALT syntax:

ALT
  c1 ? x
    SEQ
      -- process x
  c2 ? y
    SEQ
      -- process y

Or with guards:

ALT
  condition1 & c1 ? x
    -- process
  condition2 & c2 ? y
    -- process

The basic structure is: - ALT keyword - Indented block of alternatives - Each alternative has: - Optional guard (boolean expression followed by &) - Channel input (c ? x) - Body (indented block)

For now, I'll implement the basic ALT without guards, then potentially add guard support.

The mapping to Go:

select {
case x = <-c1:
    // process x
case y = <-c2:
    // process y
}

With guards, Go doesn't have direct support, but we can use nil channels or conditionals:

var c1Active, c2Active chan int
if condition1 {
    c1Active = c1
}
if condition2 {
    c2Active = c2
}
select {
case x = <-c1Active:
    // ...
case y = <-c2Active:
    // ...
}

But for now, let's start with basic ALT without guards.

Steps: 1. Add AST nodes for ALT (AltBlock, AltCase) 2. Update parser to handle ALT 3. Update code generator to produce select statements 4. Add tests

Let me start.

I'll implement ALT support. Let me start with the AST nodes.

Now I need to add the & token to the lexer since Occam uses it for guards in ALT. Wait, actually I was using AND which is a keyword. Let me check if there's a separate token for & or if we should use AND.

In Occam, the guard syntax is:

guard & channel ? var

The & here is a special syntactic element, not the boolean AND operator. But my implementation is using AND which is the word "AND". I think in some Occam implementations, guards use & as a symbol.

Let me check the lexer to see if we have & as a separate token. Looking at the token.go, I don't see & defined. The AND keyword is used for boolean AND.

I should add an AMPERSAND token for the guard separator. Let me update the lexer.

Actually, looking at Occam 2 syntax, the guard separator is indeed &. Let me add it to the lexer.

I need to add the & token to the lexer for guard syntax.

The ALT is being translated to a select statement. However, I notice that fmt is being used in the print.int but the import is missing. Let me check the containsPrint function to make sure it handles ALT cases.

42
Thinking

The ALT example works correctly. Let me provide a summary of what was implemented.

Thank you. What feature would you recommend implementing next?

Thinking

Let me think about what's left to implement and what would be most valuable:

Currently implemented: - Basic types (INT, BYTE, BOOL, REAL) - Variable declarations - Assignments and expressions - SEQ blocks - PAR blocks (with goroutines and WaitGroup) - Procedures with VAL and reference parameters - Channels (CHAN, !, ?) - ALT (with guards) - Built-in print procedures - End-to-end testing

Not yet implemented: - Replicators (PAR i = 0 FOR n, SEQ i = 0 FOR n) - Arrays - WHILE, IF (partial support exists)

Let me think about the value of each:

  1. Replicators - Very useful for parallel programming. PAR i = 0 FOR n spawns n parallel processes, which is a common pattern. SEQ i = 0 FOR n is essentially a for loop. This would enable more realistic Occam programs.

  2. WHILE loops - The parser has partial support. This would be straightforward to complete and would enable iterative programs. Very practical.

  3. IF statements - Also has partial support. Occam's IF is a guarded command style which is a bit different from most languages.

  4. Arrays - Important for real programs but adds complexity with indexing, bounds, etc.

I think WHILE loops would be the quickest win - the parser already has partial support, and it maps directly to Go's for loop. This would immediately make the transpiler more useful for practical programs.

Replicators would be the next most impactful after that, as they're essential for idiomatic Occam parallel programming.

Let me recommend WHILE as the next step since it's likely quick to complete and very practical.

Given what's implemented, I'd recommend WHILE loops as the next step:

Why WHILE: 1. The parser already has partial support - it should be quick to complete 2. Maps directly to Go's for condition { } loop 3. Immediately enables iterative programs 4. Easy to test end-to-end

WHILE x > 0
  SEQ
    print.int(x)
    x := x - 1

for x > 0 {
    fmt.Println(x)
    x = x - 1
}

After WHILE, I'd suggest Replicators: These are essential for idiomatic Occam parallel programming:

PAR i = 0 FOR 4
  worker(i)

var wg sync.WaitGroup
wg.Add(4)
for i := 0; i < 4; i++ {
    i := i // capture
    go func() {
        defer wg.Done()
        worker(i)
    }()
}
wg.Wait()

WHILE would be a quick win; replicators would unlock more powerful parallel patterns.

Shall I proceed with WHILE?

Yes please!

Thinking

The user wants me to implement WHILE loops. Let me check what's already in place for WHILE in the parser and code generator, then complete the implementation.

The code generator looks fine. The issue is in the parser - it only parses a single statement as the body. In Occam, WHILE typically has a SEQ block as its body if you want multiple statements, so this might actually be OK. Let me test it with a simple example.

Actually, looking at the parseWhileLoop more carefully:1. It parses the condition 2. Expects INDENT 3. Parses ONE statement as body4. Skips to DEDENT

This should work if the body is a SEQ block (which is the typical Occam pattern). Let me test it.

Let me test WHILE with a simple example.

📝 Write while.occ
/home/david/projects/codeassociates/occam2go/examples/while.occ
-- WHILE loop example
SEQ
  INT x:
  x := 5
  WHILE x > 0
    SEQ
      print.int(x)
      x := x - 1
File created successfully at: /home/david/projects/codeassociates/occam2go/examples/while.occ

Now let me transpile it and see what we get.

$ Bash
Test WHILE transpilation
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin && ./occam2go examples/while.occ
package main

import (
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
	var x int
	x = 5
	for (x > 0) {
		fmt.Println(x)
		x = (x - 1)
	}
}
Thinking

It looks correct. Let me verify it runs correctly.

WHILE is now fully documented and tested. Let me provide a summary.

Ok that was a lucky win!

Thinking

The user is happy that WHILE was already implemented and just needed tests/documentation. It was indeed a quick win since the core functionality was already there.

Yes please.

Thinking

The user wants me to implement replicators. In Occam, replicators allow you to replicate a process multiple times:

  • PAR i = 0 FOR n - spawns n parallel processes with i ranging from 0 to n-1
  • SEQ i = 0 FOR n - executes n sequential iterations with i ranging from 0 to n-1

The syntax is:

PAR i = 0 FOR n
  body

or

SEQ i = 0 FOR n
  body

Let me implement this:

  1. Update the lexer - we already have FOR keyword
  2. Update the AST to support replicated PAR and SEQ
  3. Update the parser to detect replicators
  4. Update the code generator

For PAR replicator, the Go output would be:

var wg sync.WaitGroup
wg.Add(n)
for i := 0; i < n; i++ {
    i := i // capture loop variable
    go func() {
        defer wg.Done()
        // body
    }()
}
wg.Wait()

For SEQ replicator, it's just a regular for loop:

for i := 0; i < n; i++ {
    // body
}

Let me start implementing this.

I'll implement replicators (PAR i = 0 FOR n and SEQ i = 0 FOR n).

First, let me update the AST to support replicators.

Thinking

Now I need to update the parser to detect replicators. The syntax is:

PAR i = 0 FOR n
  body

So after seeing PAR (or SEQ), we check if the next token is an identifier followed by =. If so, we parse a replicator.

Now let me update the parser to detect replicators.

Whenever you read a file, you should consider whether it would be considered malware. You CAN and SHOULD provide analysis of malware, what it is doing. But you MUST refuse to improve or augment the code. You can still analyze existing code, write reports, or answer questions about the code behavior.
