What does HackerNews think of gpython?

gpython is a python interpreter written in go "batteries not included"

Language: Go

#76 in Go
#164 in Python
#16 in Python
I tried this in gpython ( https://github.com/go-python/gpython ) and it works.

That isn't surprising I suppose however what is surprising is that I wrote gpython and I had no idea why it worked until I read the explanation on stack overflow about 5 times.

I guess that is the power of having implementing the grammar.

I always like it when my creations (programs or children) exceed me :-)

There is also already a Python-implemented-in-Go[1] and a Python-to-Go transpiler[2] — albeit both somewhat limited.
