How difficult is it to write a compiler?

  1. Read in a source file, and create a parse tree.
  2. Turn the parse tree into an abstract syntax tree.
  3. Turn the abstract syntax tree into object code.

Sounds easy...eh.  I think I'll write one after lunch.

But food for thought, a whole new programming language was created in the space of a few weeks on multiple platforms: LOLCode!
