One of the things I try to do when learning a new language is how to make a 4 function calculator.

Roberto has posted an intro to his Building a Programming Language class https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXPoQXrP0261ceYEnDd5LaZy2UM_4hLae and uses LPEG to do pattern matching. I would not have thought of it as a way to do a simple (or complex) calculator. A good example set if you've never used LPEG (like me)

I have coded a simple calculator while learning compilation theory.

It has been pushed towards my GitHub repository[1]. Hope that helps.
