A quick documentation on how to run a pocketlang program locally (#45)
* A quick documentation on how to run a pocketlang program locally With a small factorial program written in pocketlang and executed on the terminal, this demonstrates how to execute a script on a loalhost using pocketlang binary * Apply changes requested in review #1

### On Your System
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: Make sure you've compiled the `pocketlang` source code and you have the `pocket` binary in `build/debug/`.
|
||||
|
||||
Copy/paste or type in the following factorial code in any editor of your choice:
|
||||
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
# A recursive factorial function
|
||||
def fac(n)
|
||||
if n == 0 then return 1 end
|
||||
return n*fac(n-1)
|
||||
end
|
||||
|
||||
# Prints all factorials from 0 to 10 exclusive.
|
||||
print('Factorial of 0 - 9\n')
|
||||
for i in 0..10
|
||||
print(fac(i))
|
||||
end
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Save the file as `factorial.pk` and execute it from your pocketlang directory with: `./build/debug/pocket <path-to-factorial.wren>/factorial.pk`.
|
||||
|
||||
This should print out the output of the factorial program in your STDOUT (terminal).
