In 500 lines you can write a self-hosting compiler, a checkers AI, a usable text editor, a compiling-to-DFA regex matcher, Bayes net inference, or a ray tracer, to mention the first examples that come to mind. (Ordinary lines, not golfed.) Most programs aren't so polished, but when yours gets 10 times longer than a Lisp compiler, it's worth asking why. |
