I've been writing a Forth Interpreter over the past weeks as a way to learn Rust. It's very motivating how quickly a working prototype can be whipped up; once the data structures are worked out it's basically done. There's a quiet beauty and elegance to Forth code that I can't really find anywhere else. At the same time, it's often frustratingly crufty.
