Ask HN: Looking for a stack-based VM that can run a simple instruction set
3 points by crypto-jeronimo on April 25, 2019 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
As a teaching assistant, I'm looking for a suitable stack-based VM that can run a relatively simple instruction set (I haven't got a particular instruction set in mind yet, but I've been considering RISC).

The purpose is demonstration of how programs can be created solely from opcodes (and then run into a stack-based VM).




? Maybe Knuth's MMIX, http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/ ?
