Thanks again. These examples will help me a lot. And it's really 
interesting that D has a long history of writing interpreters or 
compilers. To be honest, D is really one of the best options for 
this because it's both simple and has built-in functions unlike 
C. But C is also a good option and a very classic option in the 
programming community. I have a plan not to write my entire 
language based on D. Because it will be significantly more 
dependent and a bug in D might break my language. (Of course the 
D team is always working hard to develop and improve D) and I 
wish Eko would be self-hosted.
