I think you misunderstood this. This is not an illusion of objects from different angles, but an unintuitive transformation of geometry.

It's still a useful generic exercise for beginners.
Although I recommend starting with a simpler syntax like sexpr, you can get more practice with less code.
For a deeper exercise, I recommend compiling to machine code instead of stopping at bytecode [1]; you can learn assembly along the way, which is more satisfying than compiling to C.
