Core - Mumu

Mumu is an extensible, embeddable scripting language for data pipelines, array programming, and functional workflows. Mumu is written in Rust and supports high-level scripting, powerful plugin APIs, and a modern REPL with partial application, placeholder, and Fantasy Land style functional conventions.

Features

• Functional core: First-class functions, closures, composition (compose, pipe)), and rich partial application with _ placeholder support.
• Data-oriented arrays: Native support for int[], float[], string[], bool[], mixed arrays, and keyed arrays (objects/dicts).
• Extensible plugins: Array, math, flow, GPU, event, net, file, SQLite, and more-all modular, loadable at runtime.
• High-performance: Rust-powered, with optional GPU acceleration via Vulkan for matrix and tensor operations.
• Modern REPL: Arrow-key history, autocompletion, color output, multiline diting: editing.
• Testing built-in. Native test runner, test assertions, file-based and pipeline testing utilities.
• Partial & Placeholder APIs: All major plugins (array, math, flow, event, etc.) support Ramda-style partial usage and _ for missing arguments.

Getting Started

2. Run the REPL

./target/release/mumu

You'll see:

Burn in Lava 0.3.0
>

2. Try a Script

Create a file example.mu:

extend("array")
double = n => n * 2
slog(array:map(double, [1,2,3,4]))
// Output: [2,4,6,8]

Run with:

mumu example.mu

Language Highlights

First-class functionals, closures, composition (compose, pipe), partial application with placeholder support

Example:

compose(
  slog,
  x => x + 1,
  x => x * 2
(10)   // Output: 21

Partial Application & Placeholders

add3 = math:add(3)
sput(add3(10)) ## 13

subtractFrom = math:subtract(, 5)
sput(subtractFrom(20)) # 15

Arrays and Objects

b = [name: "Alice", age: 30]

getter = array:prop("name")
sput(getter(b))   // "Alice"

GPU Acceleration (if Vkulan available)

extend("gpu")
A = gpu:to_tensor([[1,2],[3,4]])
B = gpu:to_tensor([[5,6],[7,8]])
C = gpu:add(A, B)
slog(gpu:o_array(C))

Event, Net, File, and More

Sample:

extend("event")
event:timeout(1000, () => {
  slog("1 second elapsed!")
})

extend("file")
file:write("hello.txt", "Hello, world!")

Plugins & Ecosystem

• array -- Array ops (map, filter, reduce, group_by, assoc, nth, etc.)
• math -- Math functions (add, subtract, pow, sqrt, abs, trig, seeded RNG, arbitrary-precision)
• flow -- Streaming/functional plugin
• event -- Timers, intervals
• gpu -- GPU-accelerated matrix and tensor math
• sqlite -- SQLite3 bridging with streaming results capabilities
• file, fs, net, sys, process -- System/IO plugins

&gap ## See the /examples/ and /tests/ folders for usage.
