And back to the subject at hand, while it's not available for free on the web, if you love these kinds of CS books, Lisp In Small Pieces needs a place on your CS bookshelf. The default Lisp evaluator is eval, we can easily write a Remember F# has a rich set of syntax while a domain language takes a small subset of it is usually enough expressive. Writing a recursive function to perform that calculation is pretty straight forward, and once we put all of these pieces together in our create-world routine, we have a working proof of concept. My faithful readers, will get to see them first. €�One of my New Year's goals is to re-read Lisp in Small Pieces and implement all 11 interpreters and 2 compilers. Scheme is probably easier to implement than CL, because it is much, much smaller. Otherwise I would be hard pressed to choose something like The Art of the Metaobject Protocol, The wizard book, or maybe Lisp In Small Pieces. I'm actually not that fond of TAOCP. Lisp in Small Pieces Computer Science Programming Languages Lisp Christian Queinnec Cambridge University Press New Ed edition. I am actually selling these items so I can pay Dreamhost for another year of hosting, so it's for a good cause. The great idea of quotation at least traces back to Lisp, where program is also a kind of data – the execution behavior of a piece of program is completely controllable by the user, just treat it as input data and write a custom evaluator for it. (I hope to understand "Lisp in Small Pieces" someday. Posted by aspo at 10:17 PM on April 1, 2009. Easy to compile (most implementations of Lisp are written almost or entirely in Lisp, and the “reference” implementations usually include a compiler – see Sussmann's Scheme book or 'LiSP in Small Pieces' for examples). But I definitely wouldn't say that its standard has been written with optimization in mind. The following code snipped from the REPL prompt We're glossing over a few details here, but if you have a little experience working with Lisp then you should have a pretty good idea of how to implement the above.
