+This is Hacker Public Radio Episode 4296 for Monday the 20th of January 2025.
+Today's show is entitled Crafting Interpreters.
+It is the first show buying you host Iota and is about two minutes long.
+It carries a clean flag.
+The summary is, Talk About the Book Crafting Interpreters by Robert Nistrom.
+Hello, this is Iota speaking.
+Today I would like to talk about the book Crafting Interpreters by Robert Limpstrom.
+I have a passion for interpreters and compilers for a long time and always like the right one.
+But never succeed.
+I've read a lot of books about interpreters and compilers but never able to finish it.
+Crafting interpreters is the first book I read cover to cover and understand it and I'm
+able to follow through all the coding and build an interpreter as well as a compiler.
+It is amazing.
+The first half of the book is to build a three-talking working interpreter in Java.
+The second half of the book is to build a bytecode compiler in C. Both of them are for
+a programming language the other called LOX-L-O-X.
+The book is smart because it is based on generic Java and C code and does not specify any
+IDE or make file to use.
+You will have to figure out that yourself.
+That may sound like a hurdle but in fact it is a blessing.
+That makes the code to the book very portable.
+The author has a way to explain compiler concepts in an interesting way.
+The bytecode compiler in the second half of the book implements the following features.
+Virtual machine, closure, class and methods, garbage, collector, etc.
+The book cover itself is already very revealing.
+It is basically a high-level view of the different passes and types of congeneration.
+You can buy the book in different places, both physical copy or e-book.
+However, the book is also available for free at craftinginterpreters.com.
+I would say this book is a labor of love by the author, highly recommended.
+Iota signing off.
