Lox Interpreter (Java)

Interpreter for a simple, Python-like language called Lox.

This interpreter parses programs by generating a Abstract-Sytntax-Tree (AST) of the Lox program, maintaining the relationship between syntax objects. The program is run by descending the tree and evaluating each leaf node to execute the correct underlying behaviour meaning this interpreter falls in the category of tree-walking-interpreters.

This interpreter heavily utilises the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) which is itself a Bytecode intepreter.
