lukasmartinelli/py14: Python to C++ 14 transpiler edit / delete

"C++14 has such powerful type deduction that it is possible to transpile Python into C++ without worrying about the missing type annotations in python. Only a small subset of Python is working"

Understanding and Writing Compilers edit / delete

Richard Bornat's 1979 book on writing compilers. Substantially more accessible than the dragon book. The examples are mostly in BCPL, which (as usual) I'm dead impressed with; for a typeless language it's very clean and clearly suited to the purpose.

ANSI-ISO PASCAL edit / delete

"This page contains various information about the computer language Pascal as stated by the ISO 7185, the original Pascal language designed by Niklaus Wirth at ETH in Zurich, and any implementations of that language." There's lots of description of Delphi and other derivations elsewhere, but this is very comprehensive on ISO PASCAL, including the history of its compilers.

rswier/c4 edit / delete

A little self-hosting C subset interpreter. Very neat! Compare this with Diomidis Spinellis' little self-hosting C bytecode compiler in the IOCCC a while back...
