I am trying to compare LISP/Scheme/Python for their expressiveness.
Scheme is actually a lisp, isn't it ?
For this, I propose a vanilla C interpreter. I have seen a book which
writes C interpreter in C.
The criteria would be the small size and high readability of the code.
Readability is partly function of the reader, so I fail to see how you
define any objective metrics here.
Also, "small size" and "high readability" can easily conflict with each
other. I pretty often rewrite (my own) one-liners to as many lines as
necessary to make the code more readable / maintainable.
How would a gury approach such a project ?
Can't tell. Maybe you should ask one ?
