I am reading Crafting Interpreters right now. It seems to be a solid book but I am curious how others read it? Do you reproduce all, or most, the code yourself

Do you reproduce all, or most, the code yourself? That’d be a great way to make everything stick but makes progress terribly slow.
- ok_dad 4y agoI'm in the process of reading Part II (the Java interpreter) thoroughly on the toilet, then will implement Part III (the C bytecode interpreter) in Zig. That way I understand the concepts well but end up with something a bit nicer for my efforts. I know I wouldn't finish the bytecode interpreter if I did both parts fully.
- fantod 4y agoMy approach was to port everything to a different language I was learning.
- mminkov 4y agoSame as others. I took it as an opportunity to work with Rust and enjoyed it a ton! Crafting Interpreters has been ported to any language you can think of so try that approach out!
