| | | | | In this post, we are going to take a deep dive into pointer tagging, where metadata is encoded into a word-sized pointer. Doing so allows us to keep a compact representation that can be passed around in machine registers. This is very common in implementing dynamic programming languages, but can really be used anywhere that additional runtime information is needed about a pointer. We will look at a handful of different ways these pointers can be encoded and see how the compiler can optimize them for diff... | |

| | | | | A look at the way the representation of numbers evolved in first few years of Lisp across different implementations (LISP I, LISP 1.5, Basic PDP-1 LISP, M-460 LISP, PDP-6 LISP, BBN LISP). Start with the worst number representation this side of church numerals, end with something surprisingly modern. | |
