# Limbo by Example
These are programming examples in the spirit of [gobyexample](https://github.com/mmcgrana/gobyexample), but targeted to the Limbo programming language.
These examples are tested on the [purgatorio](http://code.9front.org/hg/purgatorio/) fork of the Inferno operating system.
Examples will, if they reference lines in source within an explanation, utilize a plumbable string (see: plumb(1)) which indicates the line - or range of lines - which the explanation references.
Examples are composed in acme(1) which allows you to right click these strings to jump to the relevant source lines.
The `;` rune indicates a command to be run from the Inferno sh(1) shell.
## Building
If a given example provides a mkfile:
; mk
Otherwise, there will only be one file, a Limbo source file which can be built with:
; limbo file.b
You could then run said file with:
; file
## Index
- [Hello World](./HelloWorld)
- [Values](./Values)
- [Constants](./Constants)
