Interpreter and Compiler

I looked at EVM, OVM, CosmWasm and Gnolang, and wanted to know how those work. I figured it would be a good idea to go through some books on interpreters and compilers. I chose to write an interpreter and a compiler in Go because I am more familiar with Go than C++. Maybe I'll try out C++ in the future.

Interpreter

Tree-walking interpreter.

1. Parse source code
   • lexer
   • parser
2. Build an abstract syntax tree (AST)
   • AST
   • internal object system
3. Evaluate the AST
   • evaluator

Compiler

TBA
