GSOC 2022 - LFortran - Implementing Generics

          GSOC 2022 - LFortran - Implementing Generics Final report - Oshanath Rajawasam Mentors : Ondřej Čertík, Gagandeep Singh Overview This project was about implementing generics for LFortran. This project was implemented parallelly to the same project on LPython, so a lot of the same code is reused. The LPython counterpart was developed by Luthfan Lubis and it has progressed further than this project. Reason for the Project Functions and subroutines in Fortran have specific parameter types and return types associated with them. Since LFortran, at its core, is the same as Fortran, this is also the case for LFortran. This can be problematic when the application demands template-like structures. For example, when implementing a function to add 2 numbers, with current tools available, we would have to implement the same function for all data types it is intended to be used. But with templates, we can define the function once, and use it with any data type we w...

    2022-07-22-progress report 6 I wrote code to generate ASR from AST this week. It is an initial implementation so it's not complete.  I had to make some changes to the example "swap_m.f90" since I couldn't get the interface working. I will work on it in a future week. The general approach I took is I added a symbol table to the Template since it will contain functions and subroutines (program units) as well as derived types. I also ignored restrictions and TypeParameter for now. The first item of the Short term TODO list of  this  PR is now complete.

2022-06-18-progress report 1 This week I forked the LFortran repository and compiled it to generate some AST and ASR to inspect how they are generated. I also managed to take a look at the previous implementation of generics, a Merge Request made by Ondřej Čertík ( https://gitlab.com/lfortran/lfortran/-/merge_requests/1664 ). I will try to complete this Merge Request to get generics syntax working in LFortran as my first task.     Due to exams in my school, I couldn't get much work done this first week. I will be done with them in a few weeks time, until when my output will be lower than my actual capabilities.
