// 2022.05.28 - On lambda expressions
// I think it's not wise to add the multiline lambda expressions

// it stops being whitespace significant and you can type everything with semicolons and braces
// Problem is first of all it's kind of weird to have a completly different syntax
// in a language to solve something that is a minor inconvenience,
// second of all it turned out to be kind of bad, maybe if it would be more
// complicated then it would be ok but it implies that you have to semicolon end

I think it's not wise to add the multiline lambda expressions
As is the case with python it would require new alternative syntax.
The idea was to imply that the whitespace significant syntax is just
inserting '{' '}' ';' automatically and if you decide to write a brace
it stops being whitespace significant and you can type everything with semicolons and braces
Problem is first of all it's kind of weird to have a completly different syntax
in a language to solve something that is a minor inconvenience,
second of all it turned out to be kind of bad, maybe if it would be more
complicated then it would be ok but it implies that you have to semicolon end
a lot of thing unintuitively.

// Probably single line lambdas should be ok. Currently braces turn off indentation
// awareness. There might be something you can do by trying to turn that on
// problem is that complicates parsing a lot cause you have to account for multiple
// indent styles, which means error messages become bad.
Probably single line lambdas should be ok. Currently braces turn off indentation
awareness. There might be something you can do by trying to turn that on
problem is that complicates parsing a lot cause you have to account for multiple
indent styles, which means error messages become bad.
// 2022.05.30 - On constructors and compound expressions
// I unified the compound expression syntax (Type){} with function call syntax Type().
// It's differentiating on whether you used type. I think there is a benefit to the language
// not having an idea of overloading the type constructor. You will always know what will happen.
// Unlike C++ for example. It seems like a minefield that can fuck your mind up. So many corner cases
// and variants. having the idea of compounds doing one thing is reassuring I think.
// You can always do a constructor by writing a function with lower case type if you want that.
// For now I don't thing it should be overloadable.

It's differentiating on whether you used type. I think there is a benefit to the language
not having an idea of overloading the type constructor. You will always know what will happen.

You can always do a constructor by writing a function with lower case type if you want that.
For now I don't thing it should be overloadable.

@todo
[ ] - Enums
[ ] - Enum . access to values
[ ] - Fixing access to constants, in C we cant have constants inside of structs / functions so we need to rewrite the tree
[ ] - Access through struct names to constants Arena.CONSTANT
[ ] - Default values in structs??? Should compound stmts bring values from default values?? Maybe not? Whats the alternative
[ ] - For loop
[ ] - Switch
[ ] - Lexer: Need to insert scope endings when hitting End of file
[ ] - Add single line lambda expressions
