## Overview

ΨLang is a **spike-flow language** where computation emerges from the propagation of temporal patterns through a living network. Unlike traditional languages with sequential instructions or functional transformations, ΨLang programs are **evolving neural topologies** that think, learn, and grow as they execute.

**Core Innovation:**
Programs aren't written—they're **cultivated**. Code is a garden of interconnected neurons that self-organize through spike-timing-dependent plasticity. The language itself learns from its execution history.

## The Spike-Flow Paradigm

### Traditional Programming
```
Input → Function → Output  (dead computation)
```

### ΨLang
```
Stimulus ⟿ Living Network ⟿ Emergent Behavior
         ↺ (learns, adapts, remembers)
```

## Core Concepts

### 1. **Neurons as First-Class Citizens**

Everything is a neuron. Variables, functions, data structures—all are neuronal assemblies.

```psi
# Define a neuron (not a variable!)
∴neuron potential ~65mV threshold -50mV refractory 2ms

# Neurons can spike
potential ← ⚡15mV     # Inject current
potential ⟿ output    # Propagate if threshold reached

# Neurons decay naturally
⏱ 20ms → potential ↓15%
```

### 2. **Spike Patterns as Code**

Programs are temporal spike patterns, not sequential instructions:

```psi
# A spike pattern (the fundamental unit of computation)
pattern ⟪echo⟫ {
  ⚡ @0ms → neuron₁    # Spike at t=0
  ⚡ @5ms → neuron₂    # Spike at t=5  
  ⚡ @5ms → neuron₃    # Concurrent spike
  
  # Temporal constraints
  Δt(neuron₂, neuron₃) < 1ms → strengthen(syn₂₃)
}

# Execute pattern (plant it in the network)
cultivate ⟪echo⟫ in layer₁
```

### 3. **Synaptic Flow Control**

Instead of if/else, computation flows through weighted synapses:

```psi
# Topology defines logic
topology ⟪decision⟫ {
  input ⊸0.8⊸ option_a   # Strong excitatory synapse
  input ⊸-0.6⊸ option_b  # Inhibitory synapse
  
  # Lateral inhibition (winner-takes-all)
  option_a ⊸-1.0⊸ option_b
  option_b ⊸-1.0⊸ option_a
  
  # Adaptive weights (Hebbian learning)
  ∀ (pre, post) where concurrent_spike(pre, post):
    weight ← weight + 0.1 × correlation
}
```

### 4. **Temporal Types**

Types are temporal patterns, not data structures:

```psi
# A temporal type signature
type ⟪rhythm⟫ = spike-train {
  frequency: 40Hz ± 5Hz
  burst-length: 3-7 spikes
  inter-burst: 50-100ms
  phase-locked: true
}

# Type checking is pattern matching in time
validate input : ⟪rhythm⟫
  → measure(frequency(input)) ∈ [35Hz, 45Hz]
  ∧ burst-structure(input) matches [3-7]
```

### 5. **Assemblies (Not Functions)**

Computational units are self-organizing neuronal assemblies:

```psi
# Define an assembly (emergent computation unit)
assembly ⟪memory-store⟫ {
  # Core neurons
  neurons: engram[100] with connectivity 0.3
  
  # Input/output interfaces
  gate: dendrites ← external-input
  recall: axons → external-output
  
  # Plasticity rule (assembly strengthens itself)
  learning: stdp with {
    potentiation: 0.1 when Δt ∈ [-20ms, 0ms]
    depression: -0.05 when Δt ∈ [0ms, 20ms]
  }
  
  # Homeostatic regulation
  stability: maintain avg-firing-rate @ 5Hz
}

# Use assembly
⟪memory-store⟫ ← encode(stimulus)
⏱ 100ms
retrieved ← ⟪memory-store⟫.recall()
```

### 6. **Wave Propagation (Not Loops)**

Iteration is replaced by traveling waves through the network:

```psi
# Create a wave of activity
wave ⟪processing⟫ {
  origin: input-layer
  velocity: 0.5 neurons/ms
  width: 10 neurons
  
  # Wave carries computation
  transform: λ(n) → n.integrate() × decay(distance)
  
  # Termination condition
  absorb-at: output-layer
  reflect-from: boundaries with damping 0.3
}

# Launch wave
⟪processing⟫ ∈ network propagate-until stable
```

### 7. **Quantum Spike Superposition**

Neurons can exist in superposed firing states (inspired by quantum computing):

```psi
# Superposition of spike/no-spike
quantum-neuron in |ψ⟩ = α|spike⟩ + β|silent⟩

# Entangle neurons
entangle(n₁, n₂) → measurement(n₁) collapses n₂

# Quantum assembly for parallel search
superposed-memory ← |all-patterns⟩
query → collapses-to matching-pattern

# Decoherence time (before state collapses)
coherence-lifetime: 50ms
```

### 8. **Meta-Plasticity (Code that Rewrites Itself)**

The language runtime modifies its own execution rules:

```psi
# Meta-learning rule
meta ⟪optimize-learning⟫ {
  observe: task-performance over 1000 episodes
  
  when performance plateaus:
    learning-rate ← learning-rate × 0.95
    exploration ← exploration × 1.1
  
  when performance drops:
    rollback topology to checkpoint
    inject noise 0.1 into weights
  
  # The learning rule learns to learn
  meta-adapt: ∂(learning-rule)/∂(task-distribution)
}
```

## Syntax Design

### Operators (Neural Primitives)

```psi
⚡    spike injection
⟿    propagation/flow
←    assignment/encoding
→    causation/projection  
⊸    synaptic connection
↑    potentiation
↓    depression
⏱    temporal marker
∴    neuron declaration
∀    universal quantifier over neurons
∃    existential over assemblies
⟪⟫   pattern delimiters
∈    membership in network
⊗    tensor product of patterns
⊕    assembly composition
◉    attentional focus
≈    approximate pattern match
∿    oscillatory coupling
⇝    delayed connection
⊶    modulatory synapse
```

### Numeric Precision

All neural computations support full IEEE 754:

```psi
# Precision declaration
precision policy {
  membrane-potential: double    # 64-bit for accuracy
  synaptic-weight: single       # 32-bit for efficiency  
  spike-timing: extended        # 80-bit for temporal precision
  plasticity: quad              # 128-bit for learning stability
}

# Automatic precision management
auto-promote when overflow-risk > 0.01
auto-demote when energy-critical mode
```

## Complete Examples

  pattern ⟪E⟫ = spike-train @ [1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1]
  pattern ⟪L⟫ = spike-train @ [1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1]
  pattern ⟪O⟫ = spike-train @ [1,1,1,1,0,1,1,1,1]
  
  # Sequential activation through synfire chains

  # Create substrate
  substrate {
    input-layer: 2 neurons
    hidden-layer: 4 neurons with lateral-inhibition
    output-layer: 1 neuron
    
    # Random initial connectivity
    topology: random(density: 0.3, weights: uniform[-0.5, 0.5])
  }
  
  # Training through spike-timing
  training {
    examples: [
      [⚡⚡]@input → ∅@output    # (1,1) → 0
      [⚡∅]@input → ⚡@output    # (1,0) → 1  
      [∅⚡]@input → ⚡@output    # (0,1) → 1
      [∅∅]@input → ∅@output    # (0,0) → 0
    ]
    
    # Natural learning through STDP
    learning-rule: stdp with reward-modulation
    epochs: evolve-until accuracy > 0.95
    
    # Network self-organizes the solution
    emergent-structure: observe hidden-layer topology
  }
}

# The network discovers XOR naturally
cultivate ⟪learn-xor⟫
```

cognitive-system ⟪agent⟫ {
  
  # Working memory (persistent oscillations)
  working-memory {
    neurons: 700 in gamma-rhythm @ 40Hz

  episodic-memory {
    substrate: 10,000 neurons
    encoding: sparse-patterns(sparsity: 0.05)
    consolidation: replay during sleep-phase
    
    # Memory is synaptic configuration
    storage ≡ weight-matrix
    recall ≡ pattern-completion via attractors
  }
  
  # Attention (dynamic routing)
  attention {
    mechanism: top-down-bias + bottom-up-salience
    
    # Focus is a traveling wave
    focus ◉ = wave {
      width: 50 neurons
      intensity: gaussian(σ = 20)
      movement: goal-directed + stochastic
    }
    
    # Amplify attended, suppress unattended  
    ∀ n ∈ network:
      n.gain ← n.gain × (1 + 0.5 × overlap(n, focus))
  }
  
  # Reasoning (symbolic emergence from neural substrate)
  reasoning {
    # Concepts are stable attractors
