One of my New Year's goals is to re-read Lisp in Small Pieces and implement all 11 interpreters and 2 compilers. I remember reading in Lisp In Small Pieces that CDR is statistically more often encountered that CAR So my final answer is "less CARs than CDRs in the source code of PLT". But one, day I found a nice small piece of lisp which allow me simplify the process. Caveat: this is not a best-of nor a comprehensive list of Lisp books; it is merely a selection of Lisp books you may not have heard of or that special to me in some way. It's not just an aesthetic consideration. I bought Lisp In Small Pieces, read 19 pages, then struck out on my own, writing a headcase macro to factor out the repetition from the SICP code, and an interpreter. Kamin, “Programming Languages, An Interpreter-Based Approach”, Addison-Wesley, Reading, Mass., 1990. Especially if "advanced" means "higher" position ;) – Heartless Angel Jan 22 '09 at 5:16 +1 for the first set, these are great books to add to the collection. Christian Queinnec, Lisp in Small Pieces. 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. Christian Quenniac's Lisp in Small Pieces is a good reference for interpreting and compiling Lisp. September 6, 2007 at 3:23 PM · Robby said. Subscribe to comments with RSS. As discussed in extraordinary detail in Lisp in Small Pieces, but I don't recall whether the latter (or anything else) examines the connection. See “Lisp in Small Pieces” or “Implementing Elliptic Curve Cryptography” for real literate programs as books. I have developed what I call the “Hawaii” test for a good literate program. Queinnec's “Lisp in Small Pieces” covers the implementation implications of the choice between Lisp-1 and Lisp-2. Java: Written in If you want a mercilessly small, easily modifiable version, this is it. It seems to me that there is a clear connection with reflective towers, e.g. €The Anatomy of Lisp” by John Allen. 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.
