Secd: A silly implementation of the SECD machine
I've actually recently read "FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING: Application and Implementation", by Peter Henderson from 1980, which contains a description of the SECD machine and a compiler for a simple purely-functional Lisp dialect called Lispkit.
This <https://github.com/carld/lispkit> looks like a good repo if you want to know more, although I'm not related to it in any way.
I can't say how it compares the book by Kogge mentioned in this post since I haven't read that, but I can say I think it's an excellent book and worth reading if you're interested in this kind of thing.
What are some alternatives?
lisp - A mini Lisp in 1k lines of C with garbage collector, explained. Includes over 40 built-in Lisp primitives, floating point, strings, closures with lexical scope, macros, proper tail recursion, exceptions, execution tracing, file loading, a mark-sweep/compacting garbage collector and REPL.
