The hardest part (IMHO) about getting a simple language running, particularly for beginners, is the “expression”. Mostly for your typical algebraic style infix expressions with precedence.

Just getting the grammar straight on the naturally recursive structures can be a trick. They also touch a large portion of the code generation and run time.

Get:

  (a + c/2) * sqrt(b)
working and you’re 80% there.
