In this series of posts, we write a bytecode compiler and a virtual machine for arithmetic in Haskell. We explore the following topics:

Parsing arithmetic expressions to Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs).

Compiling AST s to bytecode.

s to bytecode. Interpreting AST s.

s. Efficiently executing bytecode in a virtual machine (VM).

Disassembling bytecode and decompiling opcodes for debugging and testing.

Unit testing and property-based testing for our compiler and VM .

. Benchmarking our code to see how the different passes perform.

All the while keeping an eye on performance.
