How about this, too:

    var a = 1 ^ 2

As it stands, I find the thing entirely useless.

Same here, tried a basic loop and it broke:

for i in 0...10 { print(i) }

Then again, the project does say it's in early development. Perhaps a re-visit in a month or two will yield some nice progress.

If the projects GitHub page is anything to go by, I doubt that. The only thing that's been changed in 9 months is the readme, and the change was to remove the note about the project being in "active early development".
