serval 0.1
Simple Scheme interpreter in Python
License: MIT

Overview
---------

**Serval** is a high-level Scheme interpreter written in Python.
It implements a subset of R5RS. The code closely follows
Scheme meta-circular evaluator implementation from Ch.4 of the SICP book.


The goal of the project
------------------------

1. Self-education (I've been always fascinated by language
   design and implementation, it was about time I started learning about
   interpreters and compilers by actually writing something).

2. To serve as a potential example for other people
   interested in interpreter implementation, particularly
   Scheme interpreter.

3. Not a goal per se, but I wanted the **Serval** to be able
   to run all examples from *"The Little Schemer"* book (that was
   my test target). The project has a test module *test_the_little_schemer.py*
   which runs simple meta-circular evaluator from Ch.10 of the book.
