It seems like many people agree CI is very engaging. Would you recommend any of those other language design books on your bookshelf as similarly fun and engaging? If so which ones?
- JohnDeHope 5y agoUp until Robert's book, my favorite was Building Parsers with Java by Steven John Metsker. I'm a high level garbage collected language programmer by trade. I can't simultaneously learn a very technical topic and also keep up with my pointers. Having guidance in how to do this in Java or some other similar language makes it tractable for me. I know you probably wouldn't want to implement or use a programming language built on top of another GC'd language. But for learning it's helpful.
