| SISC is an extensible Java-based interpreter of the algorithmic language
Scheme. It uses modern interpretation techniques and handily outperforms
all existing Java interpreters (often by more than an order of magnitude).
In addition, SISC is a complete implementation of the language. The entire
R5RS Scheme standard is supported, with no exceptions. This includes a full
number tower including complex number support and arbitrary precision
integers and floating point numbers, as well as full support for
first-class continuations (not just escaping continuations as in many other
interpreters). |
