**XPR** is a sandboxed cross-language expression language for data pipeline transforms. This is the Python runtime.

## Install

```bash
pip install xpr-lang
```

Requires Python 3.10+.

## Quick Start

```python
from xpr import Xpr

engine = Xpr()

engine.evaluate('items.filter(x => x.price > 50).map(x => x.name)', {
    'items': [
        {'name': 'Widget', 'price': 25},
        {'name': 'Gadget', 'price': 75},
        {'name': 'Doohickey', 'price': 100},
    ]
})
# → ["Gadget", "Doohickey"]
```

## API

### `evaluate(expression, context=None)`

Evaluates an XPR expression against an optional context object.

```python
from xpr import Xpr

engine = Xpr()

engine.evaluate('1 + 2')                          # → 3
engine.evaluate('user.name', {'user': {'name': 'Alice'}})  # → "Alice"
engine.evaluate('items.length', {'items': [1, 2, 3]})      # → 3
```

Returns the result as `object`. Raises `XprError` on parse or evaluation errors.

### `add_function(name, fn)`

Register a custom function callable from expressions:

```python
from xpr import Xpr

engine = Xpr()

engine.add_function('double', lambda x: x * 2)
engine.add_function('greet', lambda name: f'Hello, {name}!')

engine.evaluate('double(21)')           # → 42
engine.evaluate('greet("World")')       # → "Hello, World!"
engine.evaluate('items.map(x => double(x))', {'items': [1, 2, 3]})  # → [2, 4, 6]
```

## Built-in Functions

**Math**: `round`, `floor`, `ceil`, `abs`, `min`, `max`

**Type**: `type`, `int`, `float`, `string`, `bool`

**String methods**: `.len()`, `.upper()`, `.lower()`, `.trim()`, `.startsWith()`, `.endsWith()`, `.contains()`, `.split()`, `.replace()`, `.slice()`, `.indexOf()`, `.repeat()`, `.trimStart()`, `.trimEnd()`, `.charAt()`, `.padStart()`, `.padEnd()`

**Array methods**: `.map()`, `.filter()`, `.reduce()`, `.find()`, `.some()`, `.every()`, `.flatMap()`, `.sort()`, `.reverse()`, `.length`, `.includes()`, `.indexOf()`, `.slice()`, `.join()`, `.concat()`, `.flat()`, `.unique()`, `.zip()`, `.chunk()`, `.groupBy()`

**Object methods**: `.keys()`, `.values()`, `.entries()`, `.has()`

**Utility**: `range()`

## v0.2 Features

**Let Bindings**: Immutable scoped bindings allow you to define and reuse values within expressions:

```python
engine.evaluate('let x = 1; let y = x + 1; y')  # → 2
engine.evaluate('let items = [1, 2, 3]; items.map(x => x * 2)', {})  # → [2, 4, 6]
```

**Spread Operator**: Spread syntax for arrays and objects enables composition and merging:

```python
engine.evaluate('[1, 2, ...[3, 4]]')  # → [1, 2, 3, 4]
engine.evaluate('{...{a: 1}, b: 2}')  # → {'a': 1, 'b': 2}
```

## Conformance

This runtime supports **Level 1–3** (all conformance levels):
- Level 1: Literals, arithmetic, comparison, logic, ternary, property access, function calls
- Level 2: Arrow functions, collection methods, string methods, template literals
- Level 3: Pipe operator (`|>`), optional chaining (`?.`), nullish coalescing (`??`)

**v0.2 additions**: Let bindings, spread operator, 20 new built-in methods (10 array, 7 string, 2 object, 1 global)

Passes all conformance tests (Levels 1–3 plus v0.2 features).

## Specification
