## 🌈 CrossGL Programming Language Examples

### Complex Algorithm Implementation

```cpp
// Advanced pattern matching and algebraic data types
enum Result<T, E> {
    Ok(T),
    Error(E)
}

struct Matrix<T> {
    data: T[],
    rows: u32,
    cols: u32
}

function matrixMultiply<T>(a: Matrix<T>, b: Matrix<T>) -> Result<Matrix<T>, String> {
    if (a.cols != b.rows) {
        return Result::Error("Matrix dimensions incompatible");
    }

    let result = Matrix<T> {
        data: new T[a.rows * b.cols],
        rows: a.rows,
        cols: b.cols
    };

    parallel for i in 0..a.rows {
        for j in 0..b.cols {
            let mut sum = T::default();
            for k in 0..a.cols {
                sum += a.data[i * a.cols + k] * b.data[k * b.cols + j];
            }
            result.data[i * result.cols + j] = sum;
        }
    }

    return Result::Ok(result);
}

// GPU compute shader with advanced memory management
compute spawn matrixCompute {
    buffer float* matrix_A;
    buffer float* matrix_B;
    buffer float* result;

    local float shared_memory[256];

    void main() {
        let idx = workgroup_id() * workgroup_size() + local_id();

        // Complex parallel reduction with shared memory
        shared_memory[local_id()] = matrix_A[idx] * matrix_B[idx];
        workgroup_barrier();

        // Tree reduction
        for stride in [128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1] {
            if (local_id() < stride) {
                shared_memory[local_id()] += shared_memory[local_id() + stride];
            }
            workgroup_barrier();
        }

        if (local_id() == 0) {
            result[workgroup_id()] = shared_memory[0];
        }
    }
}
```

```

# Getting Started

Install CrossTL's universal translator:

```bash
pip install crosstl
```

## Basic Usage

### 1. Create CrossGL Program

```cpp
// algorithm.cgl - Universal algorithm implementation
function quicksort<T>(arr: T[], low: i32, high: i32) -> void {
    if (low < high) {
        let pivot = partition(arr, low, high);
        quicksort(arr, low, pivot - 1);
        quicksort(arr, pivot + 1, high);
    }
}

function partition<T>(arr: T[], low: i32, high: i32) -> i32 {
    let pivot = arr[high];
    let i = low - 1;

    for j in low..high {
        if (arr[j] <= pivot) {
            i++;
            swap(arr[i], arr[j]);
        }
    }

    swap(arr[i + 1], arr[high]);
    return i + 1;
}

compute parallel_sort {
    buffer float* data;
    uniform int size;

    void main() {
        let idx = global_id();
        if (idx < size) {
            // Parallel bitonic sort implementation
            bitonicSort(data, size, idx);
        }
    }
}
```

### 2. Universal Translation

```python
import crosstl

# Translate to any target language/platform
rust_code = crosstl.translate('algorithm.cgl', backend='rust', save_shader='algorithm.rs')
cuda_code = crosstl.translate('algorithm.cgl', backend='cuda', save_shader='algorithm.cu')
metal_code = crosstl.translate('algorithm.cgl', backend='metal', save_shader='algorithm.metal')
mojo_code = crosstl.translate('algorithm.cgl', backend='mojo', save_shader='algorithm.mojo')
```

## Advanced Translation Examples

### Cross-Platform AI Kernels

```python
import crosstl

# Translate neural network kernels across AI platforms
ai_kernel = """
compute neuralNetwork {
    buffer float* weights;
    buffer float* inputs;
    buffer float* outputs;
    buffer float* biases;

    uniform int input_size;
    uniform int output_size;

    void main() {
        let neuron_id = global_id();
        if (neuron_id >= output_size) return;

        float sum = 0.0;
        for i in 0..input_size {
            sum += weights[neuron_id * input_size + i] * inputs[i];
        }

        outputs[neuron_id] = relu(sum + biases[neuron_id]);
    }
}
"""

# Deploy across AI hardware platforms
cuda_ai = crosstl.translate(ai_kernel, backend='cuda')    # NVIDIA GPUs
hip_ai = crosstl.translate(ai_kernel, backend='hip')      # AMD GPUs
metal_ai = crosstl.translate(ai_kernel, backend='metal')  # Apple Silicon
mojo_ai = crosstl.translate(ai_kernel, backend='mojo')    # Mojo AI runtime
```

### Systems Programming Translation

```python
# Translate systems-level code across platforms
systems_code = """
struct MemoryPool {
    buffer u8* memory;
    size_t capacity;
    size_t used;
    mutex lock;
}

function allocate(pool: MemoryPool*, size: size_t) -> void* {
    lock_guard guard(pool.lock);

    if (pool.used + size > pool.capacity) {
        return null;
    }

    void* ptr = pool.memory + pool.used;
    pool.used += size;
    return ptr;
}
"""

rust_systems = crosstl.translate(systems_code, backend='rust')  # Memory-safe systems code
cpp_systems = crosstl.translate(systems_code, backend='cpp')    # High-performance C++
c_systems = crosstl.translate(systems_code, backend='c')        # Portable C code
```

## Reverse Translation - Import Existing Code

```python
# Import and unify existing codebases
conversions = [
    ('existing_shader.hlsl', 'unified.cgl'),     # DirectX to CrossGL
    ('gpu_kernel.cu', 'unified.cgl'),            # CUDA to CrossGL
    ('graphics.metal', 'unified.cgl'),           # Metal to CrossGL
    ('algorithm.rs', 'unified.cgl'),             # Rust to CrossGL
    ('compute.mojo', 'unified.cgl'),             # Mojo to CrossGL
]

for source, target in conversions:
    unified_code = crosstl.translate(source, backend='cgl', save_shader=target)
    print(f"✅ Unified {source} into CrossGL: {target}")
```

## Comprehensive Platform Deployment

```python
import crosstl

# One CrossGL program, unlimited platforms
program = 'universal_algorithm.cgl'

# Deploy across all supported platforms
deployment_targets = {
    # Graphics APIs
    'metal': '.metal',      # Apple ecosystems
    'directx': '.hlsl',     # Windows/Xbox

    # Specialized
    'slang': '.slang',      # Real-time graphics
    'wgsl': '.wgsl',        # Web platforms
}

for backend, extension in deployment_targets.items():
    output_file = f'deployments/{program.stem}_{backend}{extension}'
    try:
        code = crosstl.translate(program, backend=backend, save_shader=output_file)
        print(f"✅ {backend.upper()}: {output_file}")
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"⚠️ {backend.upper()}: {str(e)}")

print(f"\n🚀 Universal deployment complete!")
print(f"📁 Check deployments/ directory for platform-specific implementations")
