Well many functional programing languages have compilers/VM written in C/C++. So it is not ironic but simply use what works for now.

- willtim 11y agoC/C++ is not a good choice for writing a compiler. I do not know of any modern functional language compiler that is written in C/C++. But what does this have to do with SSA?
- geodel 11y agoYou are right. Sorry for the noise.
- catnaroek 11y agoWhat is typically implemented in C and C++ is runtime systems, not compilers.
- pjmlp 11y agoAnd that is only as a matter of convenience, as many of those runtimes could be bootstraped as well.
