Hello Compiler Experts!


I read this [1] on Quora:


> I have written some complex things in SQL, like a parser and compiler


Interesting!


Have you done that - written a parser and/or compiler in SQL? How did you do
it? Is there a web page or book that describes how to do it?

[I can imagine how to do it but it is hard to imagine why you'd do it other
than as a stunt. I am reminded of Henry Spencer's Amazing Awk Assembler. -John]
