Details

    • Q1/2026 Server Development

    Description

      Let's add support for

      • standard arithmetic +, -, *, /, %
      • comparisons ==, !=, <, <=, >, >=
      • boolean &&, ||, may be ?:
      • if possible: string repetition, perl-style x (to replace `SELECT REPEAT()` in test files)
      • alternatively: functions, like instr, substr, repeat, replace, etc (to be added as needed)

      This should work in let, if, while, $( ... )
