all lisp dialect provide `read` function, so if you want to build an
evaluator, you could just use this function and don't need to do lexical
and syntax analysis.

If no such evaluator exists, where is the complexity of a
clojure-in-clojure evaluator that I failed to mention above?
Clojure is a compiled language. This means that even if you leave out any
platform issues like bytecode generation, there

Maybe your understanding of these terms is different from mine, in my view:
Hi,
With apologies for a soft question:
* in SICP, the meta circular evaluator of scheme in scheme (chapter
4) is about a page
* in Ansi Common Lisp, there's a lisp in lisp in about half a page
* if we took Clojure, and ripped out all the JVM support (i.e.
gen-class, proxy, (.javaFunc
Hi,
lisp in lisp evaluator is the simplest evaluator you can build, because
lisp uses list to represent its program, and all lisp dialect provide
`read` function, so if you want to build an evaluator, you could just use
this function and don't need to do lexical and syntax analysis. This is the
