I'm learning interpreter for quite a long time, after reading SICP chap 4.1~4.2, I tried to copy these code in my DrRacket in planet neil/sicp
mode. I've carefully read these code but still cannot made the code running correctly.
during my copy, I made some changes:
eval
function has been renamed toewal
;(because I want to avoid underlying scheme evaluating my code)apply
function has been renamed toepply
(except thatapply-in-underlying-scheme
function);- rearranged the code structure for my better understanding
- use
#f
and#t
for my underlying implementation. - I have also disabled the driver-loop since I found the
driver-loop
never output a value for input.
the code failed to eval a compound procedure correctly, but can handle self-evaluating, define, and other special-form. I double checked the evaluate process, finding that if I change one point (I've marked with (*)
in my code), so that the line
((compound-procedure? procedure) (eval-sequence (procedure-body procedure)
modified to
((compound-procedure? procedure) (ewal (procedure-body procedure)
the interpreter can finally eval compound procedure again. I don't know why but I think mine is correct. but SICP can't be wrong. My second question is how to make the driver-loop
correctly output eval value.
the interpreter is also included in a gist because it's too long.

;; this is commented since I found it run incorrectly
update :
@Will Ness said:
about the
eval-sequence
, yourprocedure-body
function is incorrect. it should becddr
, notcaddr
, to match the eval-sequence's expectations.
I think my procedure-body
def is right. consider I am interpreting this exp:
((lambda (n)
(if (= 1 n)
1
0))
5)
this is an application, and the operator can be evaluated by eval
(ewal (operator '((lambda (n)
(if (= 1 n)
1
0))
5)) env0)
so the value of operator is a list(closure) like this:
(procedure (n) (if (= 1 n) 1 0) #new-env)
if my procedure-body is caddr
of the closure, the body will be (if (= 1 n) 1 0)
.
but if I change procedure-body
into (cddr p)
, procedure-body
will become like : ((if (= 1 n) 1 0) #new-env)
this means the #new-env
will be a part of my procedure body. anyway this is not incorrect because procedure body should not include the closure's environment.
but indeed, this interpreter cannot handle a function whose body is composed by a list of expressions. In this case, I don't know how to extract the body(exp list) from the closure.
