My favorite part of this book is that guides you through writing two separate interpreters for the same language.

I think it really allows you to grasp some of the more intricate and nuanced parts about building a programming language.

You can encounter all of the big ideas in the first half of the book and gain enough familiarity with them so that when you revisit them again in the second interpreter, you can actually absorb the interesting parts.

Such a phenomenal book!
