Except I do not think you could (not easily, anyway), the C macro processor is a rather sophisticated piece of code.

Except I do not think you could (not easily, anyway), the C macro processor is a rather sophisticated piece of code.
- anon25783 4y agoIs it really though? I feel like I could implement a C macro preprocessor in Python in like two or three days.
- wudangmonk 4y agoPeople usually overestimate their capabilities when it comes to such things. In this case I think you are underestimating yourself, I do not see how anyone can write something as bad as the C preprocessor if they had 2-3 days to work with.
- gpderetta 4y agoWriting a conforming C preprocessor is in fact quite hard. The spec is very hairy.
