Compiler Construction
Prerequisite: COMP 264 and 272.
This course covers the basics of writing a compiler to translate from a simple high-level language to machine code. Topics include lexical analysis, top-down and LR parsing, syntax-directed translation, and code generation and optimization. Students will write a small compiler.
Outcomes: Students will learn how a compiler is built.
