Infl

Infl is a tool to convert Ruby code into Python. Useful for those pesky programming exercises where you absolutely must turn in the code in python.

Requirements

• Rubinius with Ruby 1.9 support

Features

• Implicit self when accessing methods in current class
  • but only in current class context
  • must be defined in file prior to being referenced
• each, map, sort_by
• Some ruby standard library methods

Unimplemented

• Implicit return
• Array range access
• A lot of other stuff

Usage

• Edit infl and change the shebang to point to your rbx installation
• infl hello.rb produces a file in the same directory called hello.py. Or probably crashes if you have anything remotely interesting code in your input file.
