Absolutely. Corman Common Lisp was a great example of this. The REPL compiled to efficient x86 machine code.
- chubot 7y agoYup, I forgot to mention the nice new example of Julia, which is used interactively, dynamically typed, compiles to machine code, and has introspection just like Lisp (e.g. SBCL afaik): http://www.jlhub.com/julia/manual/en/function/code_native http://www.jlhub.com/julia/manual/en/function/code_native It's basically a Lisp with syntax, being bootstrapped with femtolisp for its Lisp-like macro system. https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/metaprogramming/index.html https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/metaprogramming/inde...
- lispm 7y agoMany Common Lisp implementations interactively compile to native code.
