## PocketLang is a small, fast and friendly language for scripting and embedding.

With mixed syntax of ruby and python, that can be learned in less than an hour, and it's easy to embed into another application for scripting.

```ruby
# Python like import statement.
from os import clock as now

# A recursive fibonacci function.
def fib(n)
  if n < 2 then return n end
  return fib(n-1) + fib(n-2)
end

# Print all fibonacci from 0 to 5 exclusive.
for i in 0..5
  print(fib(i))
end
```

The complete language (including the internals and runtime) is a standalone executable with zero external dependency, that can be easily copied to a flash drive. And the language itself can be compiled from source in seconds without any dependencies (of cause you need a C compiler and **optionally** a build system).
