Benda

Numba-like Python translation to HVM/Bend.

This is in conceptual stage.

Example

from dataclasses import dataclass
from benda import bjit, u24

@dataclass
class Leaf:
  value: u24  # native HVM machine integer

@dataclass
class Node:
  left: 'Tree'
  right: 'Tree'

Tree = Node | Leaf

# The `bjit` decorator will introspect and translate the function to HVM/Bend
# code, replacing it with a wrapper that converts the Python-level types of the
# inputs and result value, Numba-style.

@bjit
def sum_tree(tree: Tree) -> u24:
  match tree:
    case Leaf(value=value):
      return value
    case Node(left=left, right=right):
      return sum_tree(left) + sum_tree(right)
    case _:
      raise TypeError("Invalid type for tree")

# Alternatively, you can opt to use Python big integers and other primitives,
# they will be translated to the equivalent representations automatically.

@dataclass
class Leaf2:
  value: int

Development

  • Install Nix with Determinate Nix Installer

    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L \
      https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install
  • You can run nix develop to enter a shell with the dependencies installed.

  • You can use direnv to automatically load the environment when you enter the project directory.
