I'm learning Scheme and I am amazed how easy it is to start building a half baked Scheme implementation that somewhat works.
After knowing Python for *years* I have no idea how to actually implement the darn thing. Does this have to be true? Beneath the more complex syntax are there a few core design principles/objects/relationships to help in grokking the whole thing? Got any related links? Certainly, "(almost) everything is an object" is a good start. Are there any other axiom like statements one can hang their hat on when trying to wrap their brain around Python's architecture?
